[0029] The present invention provides a display control method for an air conditioner indoor unit panel. The air conditioner indoor unit panel has a display function and can display colors, pictures and / or patterns; in a specific embodiment, the panel is composed of a display screen (such as a liquid crystal display screen), and / or the surface of the panel is covered with a display screen (such as a liquid crystal display screen or a flexible display screen).

[0030] Figure 1 It is a method schematic diagram of an embodiment of a display control method for an indoor unit panel of an air conditioner provided by the present invention.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the display control method at least includes step S110 and step S120.

[0032] Step S110, obtaining the current control mode of the panel.

[0033] The control mode may specifically include: at least one of a setting mode, an environment mode and a scene mode. The setting mode is to control the panel to display preset display content; the environment mode is to control the display content of the panel according to the current installation environment information of the indoor unit; the scene mode is to control the display content of the panel according to the current scene information of the indoor unit.

[0034] The display function of the panel and / or the control mode of the panel can be set by at least one of the remote controller, control client (such as mobile phone APP), voice command and wire controller of the air conditioner. For example, the user can choose to turn off or turn on the display function of the panel by at least one of the remote controller, control client (such as mobile phone APP), voice command and wire controller. When the user turns on the display function of the panel, the user can further select the control mode of the panel by at least one of the remote controller, control client (such as mobile phone APP), voice command and wire controller.

[0035] Step S120: controlling the display of the panel according to the acquired current control mode of the panel.

[0036] Specifically, when the current control mode of the panel is the setting mode, the environment mode or the scene mode, the display of the panel is controlled in the following manners:

[0037] (1) When the current control mode of the panel is the setting mode, the panel is controlled to display preset display content.

[0038] In a specific implementation, the preset display content includes: at least one of a preset picture, pattern and color. The preset picture includes: at least one picture, the preset pattern includes: at least one pattern, and / or the preset color includes: at least one color. When the preset picture includes only one picture, and / or the preset pattern includes only one pattern, and / or the preset color includes only one color, the panel is controlled to display the picture and / or the pattern and / or the color fixedly;

[0039] When the pre-set pictures include more than two pictures, and / or the pre-set patterns include more than two patterns, and / or the pre-set colors include more than two colors, the panel is controlled to cyclically display the set two or more pictures and / or two or more patterns and / or two or more colors.

[0040] Specifically, more than two colors, more than two patterns, and / or more than two pictures can be preset, and the user can select at least one color and / or at least one pattern and / or at least one picture from the more than two colors, more than two patterns, and / or more than two pictures, and the panel displays them. For example, a color library including more than two colors, and / or a pattern library including more than two patterns, and / or a picture library including more than two pictures is set, and the user can add or delete colors in the color library, patterns in the pattern library, and / or pictures in the picture library.

[0041] The user can select any one or more colors from the color library for display, and / or any one or more patterns from the pattern library for display, and / or any one or more pictures from the picture library for display. For example, the selected color, pattern and / or picture can be displayed in a superimposed manner. If the user selects a color and / or a pattern and / or a picture, the indoor unit panel will fixedly display the color and / or picture selected by the user. If the user selects multiple colors and / or multiple patterns and / or multiple pictures at the same time, the indoor unit panel will cyclically display the multiple colors and / or multiple patterns and / or multiple pictures selected by the user. The user can change the color and / or picture displayed on the indoor unit panel through at least one of the remote control, the control client (such as a mobile phone APP), voice commands and the wire controller.

[0042] (2) When the current control mode of the panel is the environment mode, the display content of the panel is controlled according to the current installation environment information of the indoor unit.

[0043] In a specific implementation, the installation environment information includes: ambient light and decoration information of the installation environment. The decoration information may specifically include: at least one of background color, item distribution and item color; for example, the background color may be the wall color, curtain color and floor color of the room; the item distribution may be, for example, the distribution of furniture and / or electrical appliances in the room, such as the distribution of wardrobes, sofas, bedding, cribs, tables and chairs, etc. The item color may be, for example, the color of furniture and / or electrical appliances in the room, such as the color of wardrobes, sofas, bedding, cribs, tables and chairs, etc.

[0044] In a specific implementation, based on the current installation environment information of the indoor unit, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern matching the installation environment information is obtained from a preset picture library, and the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is displayed.

[0045] For example, based on the current installation environment information of the indoor unit, feature points of the indoor unit installation environment are extracted, and the feature points include but are not limited to at least one of color, proportion of various tones, item type, item icon, and item usage scenario. Based on the extracted feature points of the installation environment, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern matching the installation environment is selected from two or more pre-set pictures and / or two or more patterns. The two or more pre-set pictures and / or two or more patterns can be saved in a preset picture library and / or pattern library. For example, pictures and / or patterns matching the feature points of different installation environments are pre-set, and based on the extracted feature points of the indoor unit installation environment, pictures and / or patterns matching the extracted at least one feature point are obtained from the two or more pre-set pictures and / or two or more patterns. Optionally, when displaying the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern, it is displayed according to the display size and ratio (width-to-height ratio) of the panel.

[0046] For example, according to the characteristic points of the indoor unit installation environment and the size and proportion of the picture display module, one or more pictures and / or patterns that best match are selected from the picture library and / or pattern library and displayed through the pattern display module. If the characteristic points change, the selected pictures and / or patterns will also change accordingly.

[0047] In another specific implementation, based on the current installation environment information of the indoor unit, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is synthesized by artificial intelligence image synthesis technology, and the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is displayed.

[0048] Specifically, according to the current installation environment information of the indoor unit, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern matching the installation environment information is synthesized through artificial intelligence (AI) image synthesis technology, and the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is displayed.

[0049] For example, according to the current installation environment information of the indoor unit, the feature points of the indoor unit installation environment are extracted, and the feature points include but are not limited to at least one of color, various color tones, item type, item icon, and item usage scenario. According to the extracted feature points of the installation environment, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern matching the installation environment is selected from a pre-set picture library and / or pattern library. For example, pictures matching the feature points of different installation environments are pre-set, and according to the extracted feature points of the indoor unit installation environment, pictures and / or patterns matching the extracted feature points are matched from the pre-set picture library and / or pattern library. Using the matched pictures and / or through artificial intelligence (AI) image synthesis technology, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is synthesized and displayed. Optionally, when displaying the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern, it is displayed according to the display size and ratio (width-to-height ratio) of the panel.

[0050] Optionally, when the current installation environment information of the indoor unit changes, the display content of the panel is controlled again according to the current installation environment information of the indoor unit. That is, when the current installation environment information of the indoor unit changes, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern matching the installation environment information is obtained from a preset picture library for display, or at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is synthesized by artificial intelligence image synthesis technology according to the current installation environment information of the indoor unit for display.

[0051] (3) When the current control mode of the panel is the scene mode, the display content of the panel is controlled according to the current scene information of the indoor unit.

[0052] In a specific implementation, the current scene of the indoor unit is determined based on the current installation environment information of the indoor unit; based on the determined current scene of the indoor unit, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is synthesized through artificial intelligence (AI) image synthesis technology, and the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is displayed.

[0053] In a specific implementation, the installation environment information includes: item information in the current installation environment; the item information may specifically include: at least one of item type, item function and item usage scene. That is, scene matching is performed according to the item information in the current installation environment to determine the current scene of the indoor unit. For example, the current scene of the indoor unit can be determined according to the item type, item function and / or item usage scene. For example, when the item types include desks, computers and other items, the current scene is determined to be an office. For another example, when the item types include dining tables, gas stoves, pots and other items, the function is cooking, and the item usage scene is a restaurant or kitchen, the current scene is determined to be a restaurant or kitchen; for another example, when the item types include cribs, baby fences, baby toys, etc., the current scene is determined to be a baby-related scene; for another example, when the item types include bookcases and desks, the current scene is determined to be a study room, library and other scenes; for another example, when the item types include flowers and plants, the current scene is determined to be a flower shop, garden and other scenes.

[0054] Specifically, according to the determined current scene of the indoor unit, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern matching the current scene of the indoor unit is synthesized through artificial intelligence image synthesis technology, and the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is displayed.

[0055] For example, according to the determined scene in which the indoor unit is currently located, pictures and / or patterns matching the scene in which the indoor unit is currently located are matched from a preset picture library and / or pattern, and at least one picture and / or at least one pattern are synthesized and displayed using the matched pictures and / or patterns through artificial intelligence image synthesis technology. Optionally, when displaying the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern, they are displayed according to the display size and ratio (width-to-height ratio) of the panel.

[0056] For example, for special places, intelligently synthesize pictures and / or patterns, including but not limited to the special places described below:

[0057] a. When the collected installation environment matches the office and conference room, the intelligently synthesized colors and patterns are selected as business style by default;

[0058] b. When the collected installation environment contains information that is more suitable for infants, such as a crib, a baby fence, and large toys for infants, the intelligently synthesized colors and patterns will add infant elements by default;

[0059] c. When the collected installation environment contains bookcases, desks, study tables and other information that matches study rooms, libraries and bookstores, the intelligently synthesized colors and patterns will add campus and learning elements by default;

[0060] d. When the collected installation environment matches the kitchen or restaurant, the color and pattern of the intelligent synthesis will select food-related elements by default;

[0061] e. When the collected installation environment matches that of a flower shop, garden, or other occasion, the intelligently synthesized colors and patterns will select elements related to flowers, plants, and trees by default.

[0062] Preferably, in the above two embodiments of synthesizing at least one picture by artificial intelligence synthesis technology and displaying the at least one picture, it can be determined according to the preset display mode to synthesize one picture or one pattern and display it statically or to synthesize at least two pictures or at least two patterns for dynamic display, and / or it can be determined according to whether it is day or night to synthesize one picture or one pattern and display it statically or to synthesize at least two pictures or at least two patterns for dynamic display, and the specific method is as follows:

[0063] (1) Determine whether the current set display mode is static display or dynamic display; if the current display mode is static display, synthesize a picture or a pattern and display it; if the current display mode is dynamic display, synthesize at least two pictures or at least two patterns through artificial intelligence synthesis technology and display them alternately.

[0064] Specifically, the setting display mode of the panel can be selected and / or modified through at least one of a remote control, a control client (such as a mobile phone APP), a voice command, and a wired controller. When the user selects the environment mode or the scene mode, static display or dynamic display can be selected. Static display means that the indoor unit panel displays a fixed pattern and the pattern does not change. Dynamic display means that the air conditioner will intelligently synthesize multiple patterns, and the indoor unit panel display will alternately display the synthesized patterns.

[0065] (2) Determine whether it is daytime or nighttime. If it is nighttime, synthesize a picture or a pattern and display it. If it is daytime, synthesize at least two pictures or at least two patterns through artificial intelligence synthesis technology and display them alternately.

[0066] Specifically, it can be determined whether it is daytime or nighttime by detecting the current light value. If it is nighttime, a picture or a pattern is synthesized and displayed; if it is daytime, at least two pictures or at least two patterns are synthesized by artificial intelligence synthesis technology and displayed alternately. For example, when the collected light reaches a certain value, it is considered as daytime activity time, and dynamic display is selected by default. When the collected light is lower than a certain value, it is considered as nighttime sleep time, and static display is selected by default.

[0067] In order to clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, the execution process of the display control method of the indoor unit panel of the air conditioner provided by the present invention is described below with reference to a specific embodiment.

[0083] The user can select any one or more colors from the color library for display, and / or any one or more patterns from the pattern library for display, and / or any one or more pictures from the picture library for display. For example, the selected color, pattern and / or picture can be displayed in a superimposed manner. If the user selects a color and / or a pattern and / or a picture, the indoor unit panel will fixedly display the color and / or picture selected by the user. If the user selects multiple colors and / or multiple patterns and / or multiple pictures at the same time, the indoor unit panel will cyclically display the multiple colors and / or multiple patterns and / or multiple pictures selected by the user. The user can change the color and / or picture displayed on the indoor unit panel through at least one of the remote control, the control client (such as a mobile phone APP), voice commands and the wire controller.

[0084] (2) When the current control mode of the panel is the environment mode, the display content of the panel is controlled according to the current installation environment information of the indoor unit.

[0085] In a specific implementation, the installation environment information includes: ambient light and decoration information of the installation environment. The decoration information may specifically include: at least one of background color, item distribution and item color; for example, the background color may be the wall color, curtain color and floor color of the room; the item distribution may be, for example, the distribution of furniture and / or electrical appliances in the room, such as the distribution of wardrobes, sofas, bedding, cribs, tables and chairs, etc. The item color may be, for example, the color of furniture and / or electrical appliances in the room, such as the color of wardrobes, sofas, bedding, cribs, tables and chairs, etc.

[0086] In a specific implementation, based on the current installation environment information of the indoor unit, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern matching the installation environment information is obtained from a preset picture library, and the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is displayed.

[0087] For example, based on the current installation environment information of the indoor unit, feature points of the indoor unit installation environment are extracted, and the feature points include but are not limited to at least one of color, proportion of various tones, item type, item icon, and item usage scenario. Based on the extracted feature points of the installation environment, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern matching the installation environment is selected from two or more pre-set pictures and / or two or more patterns. The two or more pre-set pictures and / or two or more patterns can be saved in a preset picture library and / or pattern library. For example, pictures and / or patterns matching the feature points of different installation environments are pre-set, and based on the extracted feature points of the indoor unit installation environment, pictures and / or patterns matching the extracted at least one feature point are obtained from the two or more pre-set pictures and / or two or more patterns. Optionally, when displaying the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern, it is displayed according to the display size and ratio (width-to-height ratio) of the panel.

[0088] For example, according to the characteristic points of the indoor unit installation environment and the size and proportion of the picture display module, one or more pictures and / or patterns that best match are selected from the picture library and / or pattern library and displayed through the pattern display module. If the characteristic points change, the selected pictures and / or patterns will also change accordingly.

[0089] In another specific implementation, based on the current installation environment information of the indoor unit, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is synthesized by artificial intelligence image synthesis technology, and the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is displayed.

[0090] Specifically, according to the current installation environment information of the indoor unit, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern matching the installation environment information is synthesized through artificial intelligence image synthesis technology, and the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is displayed.

[0091] For example, based on the current installation environment information of the indoor unit, feature points of the indoor unit installation environment are extracted, and the feature points include but are not limited to at least one of color, proportion of various tones, item type, item icon, and item usage scenario. Based on the extracted feature points of the installation environment, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern matching the installation environment is selected from a pre-set picture library and / or pattern library. For example, pictures matching the feature points of different installation environments are pre-set, and based on the extracted feature points of the indoor unit installation environment, pictures and / or patterns matching the extracted feature points are matched from the pre-set picture library and / or pattern library. At least one picture and / or at least one pattern is synthesized and displayed using the matched pictures and / or through artificial intelligence image synthesis technology. Optionally, when displaying the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern, it is displayed according to the display size and ratio of the panel.

[0092] Optionally, when the current installation environment information of the indoor unit changes, the display content of the panel is controlled again according to the current installation environment information of the indoor unit. That is, when the current installation environment information of the indoor unit changes, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern matching the installation environment information is obtained from a preset picture library for display, or at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is synthesized by artificial intelligence image synthesis technology according to the current installation environment information of the indoor unit for display.

[0093] (3) When the current control mode of the panel is the scene mode, the display content of the panel is controlled according to the current scene information of the indoor unit.

[0094] In a specific implementation, the current scene of the indoor unit is determined based on the current installation environment information of the indoor unit; based on the determined current scene of the indoor unit, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is synthesized through artificial intelligence image synthesis technology, and the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is displayed.

[0095] In a specific implementation, the installation environment information includes: item information in the current installation environment; the item information may specifically include: at least one of item type, item function and item usage scene. That is, scene matching is performed according to the item information in the current installation environment to determine the current scene of the indoor unit. For example, the current scene of the indoor unit can be determined according to the item type, item function and / or item usage scene. For example, when the item types include desks, computers and other items, the current scene is determined to be an office. For another example, when the item types include dining tables, gas stoves, pots and other items, the function is cooking, and the item usage scene is a restaurant or kitchen, the current scene is determined to be a restaurant or kitchen; for another example, when the item types include cribs, baby fences, baby toys, etc., the current scene is determined to be a baby-related scene; for another example, when the item types include bookcases and desks, the current scene is determined to be a study room, library and other scenes; for another example, when the item types include flowers and plants, the current scene is determined to be a flower shop, garden and other scenes.

[0096] Specifically, according to the determined current scene of the indoor unit, at least one picture and / or at least one pattern matching the current scene of the indoor unit is synthesized through artificial intelligence image synthesis technology, and the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern is displayed.

[0097] For example, according to the determined scene in which the indoor unit is currently located, a picture and / or pattern matching the scene in which the indoor unit is currently located is matched from a preset picture library and / or pattern, and the matched picture and / or pattern is used to synthesize at least one picture and / or at least one pattern through artificial intelligence image synthesis technology and display. Optionally, when displaying the at least one picture and / or at least one pattern, it is displayed according to the display size and ratio of the panel.

[0098] For example, for special places, intelligently synthesize pictures and / or patterns, including but not limited to the special places described below:

[0099] a. When the collected installation environment matches the office and conference room, the intelligently synthesized colors and patterns are selected as business style by default;

[0100] b. When the collected installation environment contains information that is more suitable for infants, such as a crib, a baby fence, and large toys for infants, the intelligently synthesized colors and patterns will add infant elements by default;

[0101] c. When the collected installation environment contains bookcases, desks, study tables and other information that matches study rooms, libraries and bookstores, the intelligently synthesized colors and patterns will add campus and learning elements by default;

[0102] d. When the collected installation environment matches the kitchen or restaurant, the color and pattern of the intelligent synthesis will select food-related elements by default;

[0103] e. When the collected installation environment matches that of a flower shop, garden, or other occasion, the intelligently synthesized colors and patterns will select elements related to flowers, plants, and trees by default.

[0104] Preferably, in the above two embodiments of synthesizing at least one picture by artificial intelligence synthesis technology and displaying the at least one picture, the control unit 120 may determine to synthesize one picture or one pattern and display it statically or synthesize at least two pictures or at least two patterns for dynamic display according to the preset display mode, and / or may determine to synthesize one picture or one pattern and display it statically or synthesize at least two pictures or at least two patterns for dynamic display according to whether it is day or night, and the specific method is as follows:

[0105] (1) Determine whether the current set display mode is static display or dynamic display; if the current display mode is static display, synthesize a picture or a pattern and display it; if the current display mode is dynamic display, synthesize at least two pictures or at least two patterns through artificial intelligence synthesis technology and display them alternately.

[0106] Specifically, the setting display mode of the panel can be selected and / or modified through at least one of a remote control, a control client (such as a mobile phone APP), a voice command, and a wired controller. When the user selects the environment mode or the scene mode, static display or dynamic display can be selected. Static display means that the indoor unit panel displays a fixed pattern and the pattern does not change. Dynamic display means that the air conditioner will intelligently synthesize multiple patterns, and the indoor unit panel display will alternately display the synthesized patterns.

[0107] (2) Determine whether it is daytime or nighttime. If it is nighttime, synthesize a picture or a pattern and display it. If it is daytime, synthesize at least two pictures or at least two patterns through artificial intelligence synthesis technology and display them alternately.

[0108] Specifically, it can be determined whether it is daytime or nighttime by detecting the current light value. If it is nighttime, a picture or a pattern is synthesized and displayed; if it is daytime, at least two pictures or at least two patterns are synthesized by artificial intelligence synthesis technology and displayed alternately. For example, when the collected light reaches a certain value, it is considered as daytime activity time, and dynamic display is selected by default. When the collected light is lower than a certain value, it is considered as nighttime sleep time, and static display is selected by default.
