[0017] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0018] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification, claims and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0019] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used herein are only for the purpose of describing the embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0020] With the development of society, people's requirements for quality of life have increased. Creating a fragrance experience that meets their needs in work and life has become people's pursuit of high-quality life. However, the traditional fragrance system has a single number of scents, poor user selectivity, and cannot be controlled, optimized, and fine-tuned from the component level, and cannot meet the user's subjective fragrance needs.

[0021] Based on this, the embodiments of the present invention provide an odor generation method, an operation control device, a system, and a medium, which can not only quickly obtain the odor preferred by the user, but also have low cost and simple operation.

[0022] The embodiments of the present invention are further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0023] First, refer to Figure 1-Figure 6 The embodiment of the present invention proposes an odor generation method, which is applied to an odor generation system. The odor generation system includes: a host computer and an odor generation device 1000. The host computer is provided with a user interface 2000. The odor generation device 1000 includes: a plurality of discharging modules 1100, a control module connected to the plurality of discharging modules 1100, and an odor mixing box. The odor mixing box is used to mix the raw materials output by the plurality of discharging modules 1100 to obtain a target odor. Figure 1 , the method comprises steps S110-S130: S110: The host computer obtains the raw material ratio information and operation mode information of the target odor from the user interface 2000; S120: The host computer determines the operation time of each discharging module 1100 according to the raw material ratio information and the operation mode information; S130: The host computer sends the operating time of each discharging module 1100 to the control module so that the control module controls the multiple discharging modules 1100 to work according to the operating time; Among them: when the operation mode is the preview mode, the total operation time of the multiple discharge modules 1100 is the first operation time; when the operation mode is the printing mode, the total operation time of the multiple discharge modules 1100 is the second operation time, and the first operation time is less than the second operation time.

[0024] According to an odor generation method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, the user interface 2000 is provided with different operation modes and ratios of different raw materials for users to select and adjust. Users can select different operation modes and adjust the ratios of different raw materials according to actual needs. The host computer obtains the raw material ratio information and operation mode information of the target odor from the user interface 2000, and the host computer determines the operation time of each discharging module 1100 according to the raw material ratio information and the operation mode information. The host computer sends the operation time of each discharging module 1100 to the control module so that the control module controls the multiple discharging modules 1100 to work according to the operation time, and finally obtains the target odor. On the one hand, the system can allow users to quickly experience the approximate effect of the odor in the preview mode, and can also perform accurate odor output in the print mode; on the other hand, it can not only meet the fragrance needs of different users' personalized preferences and speed up the modulation process, but also help to reduce raw material consumption and reduce operating costs.

[0025] Preferably, the control module can be an Arduino control board, and the hardware type of the control module can be changed according to the specific needs of the user. The Arduino control board is equipped with ESP8266 and receives control instructions sent by the host computer through UDP communication.

[0026] It can be understood that, in the user interface 2000 of the host computer, the user can conveniently adjust the proportion of different raw materials to obtain the desired target odor, and select different operating modes such as preview mode or print mode to obtain different amounts of target odor. The host computer obtains the raw material proportion information and operating mode information of the target odor from the user interface 2000 in response to the user's selection.

[0027] It can be understood that when the operation mode is the preview mode, the total operation time of the multiple discharge modules 1100 is the shorter first operation time, and the amount of the target smell finally obtained is small, but it is enough for the user to determine whether it is the ratio formula he wants based on the obtained target smell. The user can adjust the proportion of different raw materials multiple times and select the preview mode until the target smell that meets his own preferences is obtained. It can not only meet the personalized fragrance preferences of different users and speed up the modulation speed, but also help to reduce raw material consumption and reduce operating costs.

[0028] It should be noted that a scent test paper may be provided above the scent mixing box, and the scent test paper is used to store the target scent obtained when the operating mode is the preview mode.

[0029] It is understandable that if the user determines the proportion of target odors that meets his or her preferences during the debugging process, he or she can directly select the operating mode as the printing mode. When the operating mode is the printing mode, the total operating time of the multiple discharge modules 1100 is the longer second operating time, and ultimately a larger amount of target odor is stored in the odor mixing box.

[0030] Preferably, the first running time is 2 seconds, and the second running time is 8 seconds.

[0031] It can be understood that in step S120, the upper computer determines the operating time of each discharging module 1100 based on the raw material ratio information and the operating mode information, and can accurately calculate the operating time of each discharging module 1100, which not only ensures the accuracy of the various raw material ratios in the target odor, but also avoids unnecessary long-term operation, accurately controls the amount of the target odor obtained, reduces raw material consumption, and meets the needs of different scenarios. Preferably, the discharging module 1100 is a peristaltic pump or a powder box, and the odor generation system is suitable for modulating liquid raw materials or solid raw materials to obtain a target odor.

[0032] Preferably, the number of discharge modules 1100 is 4, corresponding to 4 kinds of raw materials. As user needs change, new discharge modules 1100 can be easily added or the functions of existing modules can be improved to meet a wider range of odor printing needs.

[0033] In some embodiments, reference Figure 6 , an evaluation area 2200 and a recommendation area 2300 are provided on the user interface 2000, referring to Figure 2 The method further comprises steps S210-S230: S210: The host computer stores the acquired raw material ratio information of each target odor and displays it in the evaluation area 2200; S220: When it is detected that evaluation information of the raw material ratio information corresponding to the target odor is generated in the user interface 2000, the host computer obtains the evaluation information from the user interface 2000; S230 : The host computer generates at least one recommended ratio according to the evaluation information and displays the recommended ratio in the recommendation area 2300 .

[0034] It is understandable that the host computer generates at least one recommended ratio based on the evaluation information to help the user find a recipe suggestion that is more suitable for the user.

[0035] It should be noted that an evaluation area 2200 and a recommendation area 2300 are provided on the user interface 2000. The raw material ratio information of the target smell printed and previewed by the user each time will be stored in the historical record database of the host computer, and the raw material ratio in the raw material ratio information of each target smell will be displayed in the evaluation area 2200 of the user interface 2000. The user can evaluate the raw material ratio of the target smell displayed in the evaluation area 2200 in the user interface 2000. The host computer detects the evaluation information generated in the user interface 2000 corresponding to the raw material ratio information of the target smell in the user interface 2000 in response to the user's evaluation operation, obtains the evaluation information from the user interface 2000, generates at least one recommended ratio based on the evaluation information, and displays the recommended ratio in the recommendation area 2300 of the user interface 2000.

[0036] Preferably, the raw material ratio displayed in the evaluation area 2200 can be evaluated by scoring.

[0037] It should be noted that the evaluation information includes the raw material ratio information of the target odor, and the upper computer generates at least one recommended ratio based on the evaluation information, including: if the upper computer detects that the corresponding score value in the evaluation information meets the preset conditions, wherein the preset condition may be that the score value exceeds a first threshold value, then the raw materials with a larger proportion in the raw material ratio information are retained, and other raw materials with a smaller proportion are replaced with other types of raw materials, and a recommended ratio is generated based on the newly adjusted raw material ratio; if the upper computer detects that the corresponding score value in the evaluation information does not meet the preset conditions, then the raw materials with a larger proportion in the raw material ratio information are replaced with other types of raw materials, and a recommended ratio is generated based on the newly adjusted raw material ratio.

[0038] It is understandable that the system can be applicable to olfactory training, and by precisely controlling the proportions of different raw materials, it creates better conditions for effective olfactory training. For example, by studying the greatest common divisor of different users' pre-made odor impressions of the same scene in virtual reality, such as the ocean or the deep forest, the greatest common divisor of the pre-made odor impressions is obtained by different users evaluating the proportions of raw materials of the pre-made odors generated for the scene in the user interface 2000. The greatest common divisor of the odor impressions is continuously optimized and used as a preset condition to help users train their sense of smell and enhance their olfactory function in daily life.

[0039] In some embodiments, it also includes: the host computer stores the evaluation information and the recommended ratio of the target odor.

[0040] It is understandable that the target odor evaluation information and the recommended ratio will be stored in the recommendation configuration database of the host computer, that is, the recommendation configuration database contains the historical solutions and recommended solutions that the user has tried. The user can not only adjust the raw material ratio by himself to get the target odor he likes, but also get inspiration from the historical solutions and recommended solutions to quickly get the target odor he likes, which greatly improves the user experience.

[0041] In some embodiments, the method further includes, the host computer obtaining the selected recommendation ratio from the user interface 2000; The host computer determines the raw material ratio information of the target odor according to the recommended ratio.

[0042] It should be noted that at least one recommended ratio is displayed in the recommendation area 2300 of the user interface 2000. The user selects a recommended ratio from the multiple recommended ratios displayed in the recommendation area 2300. The host computer obtains the selected recommended ratio from the user interface 2000, and determines the raw material ratio information of the target odor based on the recommended ratio.

[0043] It should be noted that the host computer determines the raw material ratio information of the target odor according to the recommended ratio, and the host computer can directly determine the recommended ratio as the raw material ratio information of the target odor.

[0044] Furthermore, the host computer obtains the operation mode information from the user interface 2000, and determines the operation time of each discharging module 1100 according to the raw material ratio information and the operation mode information; the host computer sends the operation time of each discharging module 1100 to the control module so that the control module controls the multiple discharging modules 1100 to work according to the operation time, and finally obtains the target odor whose raw material ratio corresponds to the recommended ratio selected in the user interface 2000.

[0045] It is understandable that the user can continue to evaluate the target odor whose raw material ratio corresponds to the recommended ratio selected in the user interface 2000. The upper computer responds to the user's evaluation operation, detects the evaluation information of the raw material ratio information of the target odor generated in the user interface 2000, obtains the evaluation information from the user interface 2000, and regenerates at least one recommended ratio based on the evaluation information, and displays the recommended ratio in the recommendation area 2300 of the user interface 2000. By detecting the user's evaluation operation, the generated recommended ratio can be continuously optimized to generate a recommendation scheme that is more in line with the user's preferences, thereby improving the user's usage experience.

[0046] In some embodiments, reference Figure 6 The user interface 2000 is provided with a raw material ratio selection area 2100, and the raw material ratio selection area 2100 is provided with a plurality of sliders, and the sliders are used to adjust the ratio value of the raw materials. The method further includes: The host computer detects the movement values ​​of multiple sliders and obtains the raw material ratio information of the target odor according to the movement values.

[0047] It can be understood that the raw material proportion selection area 2100 is provided with a plurality of sliders, which are used to adjust the proportion value of the raw materials. On the one hand, the interactivity between the user and the system is enhanced, so that the user can more intuitively feel the changes brought about by the adjustment. The user can confirm the position of the slider through both visual and tactile perception, thereby reducing the possibility of operational errors. On the other hand, the slider usually supports delicate scale adjustment, and the user can achieve precise control of the raw material proportion by fine-tuning the slider position.

[0048] It should be noted that, during the movement of the slider, the system can also display the current raw material ratio value in the raw material ratio selection area 2100 in real time, which helps the user to accurately grasp the adjustment progress and avoid excessive or insufficient adjustment.

[0049] In some embodiments, the ratio values ​​of various raw materials total 100%.

[0050] It should be noted that if three raw materials, namely raw materials A, B, and C, are set in the user interface 2000, and the user drags the sliders corresponding to raw materials A and B, if it is detected that the total proportion of raw materials A and raw material B is less than 100%, if the proportion value of raw material A is 30%, and the original proportion value of B is 25%, the host computer will obtain the proportion value of raw material C based on the proportion values ​​of raw materials A and raw material B, and the proportion value of raw material C is 45%, and the proportion value of raw material C will be automatically displayed in the user interface 2000.

[0051] Preferably, the first running time is 2 seconds, and the second running time is 8 seconds.

[0052] It can be understood that in step S120, the host computer determines the running time of each discharging module 1100 according to the raw material proportion information and the running mode information. If the running mode is the preview mode, three raw materials, namely raw materials A, B, and C, are set in the user interface 2000, and the number of discharging modules 1100 is 3. Three raw materials, namely raw materials A, B, and C, are stored in the three discharging modules 1100 respectively. The user drags the sliders corresponding to raw materials A and B, the proportion value of raw material A is 30%, the original proportion value of B is 25%, and the proportion value of raw material C is 45%. The first running time is 2s, and the running times of the three discharging modules 1100 corresponding to raw materials A, B, and C are 0.6s, 0.5s, and 0.9s respectively, wherein the running time of each discharging module 1100 is the product of the proportion value of the corresponding raw material and the first running time; similarly, if the running mode is the printing mode, the running time of each discharging module 1100 is the product of the proportion value of the corresponding raw material and the second running time.

[0053] In some embodiments, reference Figure 6 The user interface 2000 is provided with a raw material ratio visualization area 2400, in which the proportions of various raw materials in the target odor are displayed in the form of a pie chart.

[0054] In some embodiments, reference Figure 6 A print icon, a preview icon, an application icon, and a scoring icon are also provided on the user interface 2000. The print icon and the preview icon are provided in the raw material ratio selection area 2100, the application icon is provided in the recommendation area 2300, and the scoring icon is provided in the evaluation area 2200.

[0055] It should be noted that the user can select the print mode or the preview mode by clicking the print icon or the preview icon, the user can select the corresponding recommended raw material ratio by clicking the apply icon, and the user can score the raw material ratio in the evaluation area 2200 by clicking the scoring icon. The design of the user interface 2000 is simple and intuitive, and the user does not need to search for the corresponding function through complex navigation or menus, which greatly improves the user experience.

[0056] Second, refer to Figure 3 The embodiment of the present application proposes an operation control device 300, including a memory 310, a processor 320, and a computer program stored in the memory 310 and executable on the processor 320, and the processor executes the program to implement an odor generation method as described in any one of the embodiments of the first aspect.

[0057] Thirdly, refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6The embodiment of the present invention application proposes an odor generation system, which includes: a host computer, an odor generation device 1000, the host computer is provided with a user interface 2000, the odor generation device 1000 includes: a support platform, multiple brackets, multiple discharge modules 1100, multiple raw material bottles, a control module connected to the multiple discharge modules 1100 and an odor mixing box, the multiple brackets are arranged above the supporting platform, the brackets are used to fix the discharge modules 1100, the discharge modules 1100 are connected to the raw material bottles, and the odor mixing box is arranged below the supporting platform.

[0058] It should be noted that the host computer is used to obtain the control instructions on the user interface 2000 and send the control instructions to the control module of the odor generating device 1000 to control the multiple discharge modules 1100 to work.

[0059] It should be noted that the supporting platform is a multi-layer structure, multiple brackets are arranged above the top layer of the supporting platform, the odor mixing box is arranged in the first hollow area 1500 of the bottom layer of the supporting platform, a second hollow area 1600 is arranged in the middle of the multiple brackets, and the discharge module 1100 is fixed to the second hollow area 1600.

[0060] In some embodiments, the odor generating device 1000 also includes multiple first hoses and multiple second hoses, one end of the first hose is connected to the raw material bottle, the other end of the second hose is connected to the input end 1110 of the discharge module, one end of the second hose is connected to the output end 1120 of the discharge module, and the second ends of the multiple second hoses are concentrated above the odor mixing box.

[0061] In some embodiments, the support platform in the odor generating device 1000 is provided with a plurality of wire grooves 1400, and the wire grooves 1400 are used to fix the second hose. A preview layer 1200 is provided below the support platform, and the preview layer 1200 is used to place the fragrance test paper.

[0062] It should be noted that a plurality of wire grooves 1400 are arranged on the top layer of the supporting platform, the preview layer 1200 is arranged between the top layer and the bottom layer of the supporting platform, a baffle layer 1300 is arranged between the preview layer 1200 and the bottom layer of the supporting platform, and gaps are arranged directly below the second end of the second hose in the top layer of the supporting platform, the preview layer 1200 and the baffle layer 1300, and the gaps are used to allow the raw materials output by the discharging module 1100 to flow into the odor mixing box. In addition, a movable baffle is arranged on the baffle layer 1300, and the baffle can be used to isolate the preview layer 1200 and the bottom layer. When the user wants to collect more target odors, the baffle can be removed, and the raw materials output by the discharging module 1100 can flow into the odor mixing box.

[0063] It can be understood that, on the one hand, through the guidance and fixation of the wire groove 1400, the second hose can maintain a stable position and direction, avoid movement or twisting during the odor generation process, thereby ensuring the accuracy and stability of printing and previewing; on the other hand, neat wiring also helps to improve the neatness and aesthetics of the equipment.

[0064] It is understandable that setting up the preview layer 1200 and placing scent test papers on the preview layer 1200 makes it convenient for users to record a large number of scent adjustment and scent test results. By spraying raw materials in different proportions on the scent test papers, users can easily compare the odor characteristics of raw materials in different proportions, thereby making a more accurate evaluation. Compared with the solution of using an odor mixing box to load the target odor, setting up the preview layer 1200 occupies less space inside the device and can also better save production costs.

[0065] In a fourth aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides a computer-readable storage medium, which stores computer-executable instructions, and the computer-executable instructions are used to enable a computer to execute an odor generation method as described in any one of the embodiments of the first aspect.

[0066] It is to be understood that, although each step in each flow chart in the embodiment of the present application is shown in sequence according to the indication of the arrow, these steps are not necessarily performed in sequence according to the order indicated by the arrow. Unless there is a clear description in the present embodiment, the execution of these steps does not have a strict order restriction, and these steps can be performed in other orders. Moreover, at least a portion of the steps in the above-mentioned flow chart can include a plurality of steps or a plurality of stages, and these steps or stages are not necessarily performed at the same time, but can be performed at different times, and the execution order of these steps or stages is not necessarily performed in sequence, but can be performed in turn or alternately with at least a portion of the steps or stages in other steps or other steps.
