[0088] Thus, if the refrigerator is in cocktail mode, it will first control the terminal device to automatically place an order for cocktail ingredients and / or the ice-making module to make ice based on the remaining ingredients to provide sufficient ingredients for the user's cocktail. Then, based on the delivery status of the cocktail ingredients and the completion status of the ice-making module, it will control the brightness and display content of the transparent screen and / or the flashing of the backlight to adapt to the atmosphere of cocktail mode. When the user is mixing cocktails, the smart refrigerator can personalize the cocktail mixing scene, improve its intelligence level, and enhance the user experience.

[0089] Optionally, after the refrigerator controls the terminal device to automatically place an order for the cocktail ingredients and / or the ice-making module to make ice based on the remaining amount of the cocktail ingredients, the refrigerator controls the brightness and display content of the transparent screen based on the delivery status of the cocktail ingredients and the completion status of ice-making by the ice-making module, and / or before the back panel light flashes, it also includes: when the refrigerator detects that the delivery status is that the delivery person has come to the door, the refrigerator controls the refrigerator door to open, and controls the central control panel and the camera to adjust the height according to the ingredients placed by the user in the refrigerator door, so that the camera can recognize the ingredients placed by the user in the refrigerator door and allow the ingredients to be accommodated by the refrigerator.

[0090] In this way, it is helpful to identify the types of ingredients placed by the user in the refrigerator door, and the ingredients can be accommodated by the refrigerator, providing high-quality cocktail ingredients for cocktail making.

[0091] Optionally, the cocktail ingredients include wine, ice cubes, and fruit. The refrigerator controls the terminal device to automatically place an order for the cocktail ingredients and / or the ice-making module to make ice based on the remaining amount of the cocktail ingredients, including: controlling the terminal device to automatically place an order for wine when the remaining amount of wine is less than or equal to a first remaining amount threshold; and / or controlling the terminal device to automatically place an order for fruit when the remaining amount of fruit is less than or equal to a second remaining amount threshold; and / or controlling the ice-making module to make ice when the remaining amount of ice cubes is less than or equal to a third remaining amount threshold.

[0092] In this way, when the refrigerator is in cocktail mode, if it detects that the remaining wine level is less than or equal to the first remaining level threshold, it automatically places an order for wine. If it detects that the remaining fruit level is less than or equal to the second remaining level threshold, it automatically places an order for fruit. If it detects that the remaining ice level is less than or equal to the third remaining level threshold, it controls the ice-making module to make ice. This helps provide users with ample cocktail ingredients, avoiding the problem of insufficient ingredients and being unable to purchase them in time when making cocktails.

[0093] Optionally, the refrigerator controls the brightness and display content of the transparent screen, and / or the flashing of the back panel light according to the delivery status of the cocktail ingredients and the completion status of ice making by the ice making module, including: when the delivery status of the cocktail ingredients is that delivery has been completed and the ice making status of the ice making module is that completion has been completed, the refrigerator controls the brightness and display content of the transparent screen, and / or the flashing of the back panel light according to the distance between the user and the refrigerator.

[0094] Once ingredients are delivered and ice is made, the transparent screen's brightness and displayed content are controlled based on the user's distance from the refrigerator, and / or the backlighting is altered to match the mood of the cocktail mix. This allows the smart refrigerator to personalize the mix, enhancing its intelligence and user experience.

[0095] Optionally, the refrigerator controls the brightness and display content of the transparent screen, and / or the flashing of the back panel light according to the distance between the user and the refrigerator, including: when the distance between the user and the refrigerator is within the detection distance range, controlling the brightness of the transparent screen to change from black to bright, displaying content to a cocktail theme, and flashing the back panel light.

[0096] If ingredients are delivered and ice is made, and the user is within the detection distance, indicating sufficient ingredients for a cocktail and the user approaching the refrigerator with the intention of mixing a drink, the transparent screen will brighten from black, displaying a cocktail theme, and the backlight will flash to match the atmosphere of the cocktail mode. As the user mixes a drink, the smart refrigerator personalizes the cocktail scene, enhancing its intelligence and user experience.

[0097] Optionally, the cocktail theme includes: the type of cocktail, the corresponding icon, the amount of the corresponding cocktail ingredients, and the theme color is purple.

[0098] Specifically, when the type of cocktail is Margarita, the corresponding icon is the Margarita icon, and the corresponding amount of cocktail ingredients is a glass of orange-flavored white wine, a fresh orange, and a few ice cubes.

[0099] This helps adapt to the atmosphere of the cocktail mix mode while also providing users with recipes, making it easier for users to mix cocktails accurately and maintain a stable flavor. When users mix cocktails, the smart refrigerator can personalize the cocktail mix scenario, improving its intelligence and enhancing the user experience.

[0100] Optionally, when the delivery of the cocktail ingredients is completed and the ice making module is completed, the method further includes: the refrigerator controlling the refrigerator to play cocktail theme music.

[0101] This helps adapt the sound to the atmosphere of the cocktail mixing mode. When the user is mixing a cocktail, the smart refrigerator can personalize the cocktail mixing scene, improve the level of intelligence, and enhance the user experience.

[0102] Optionally, the refrigerator determines that the operating mode is the cocktail mixing mode, including: the refrigerator detecting whether the distance between the user and the refrigerator is within a detection distance range during a user's usual cocktail mixing time period. If the distance between the user and the refrigerator is within the detection distance range, the refrigerator receives a cocktail mixing instruction. Upon receiving the cocktail mixing instruction, the refrigerator controls the operating mode to the cocktail mixing mode. Specifically, the user's usual cocktail mixing time period is determined by historical user cocktail mixing time periods. More specifically, the user's usual cocktail mixing time period may be Saturday and / or Sunday.

[0103] In this way, during the time period when the user is accustomed to making cocktails, if the distance between the user and the refrigerator is within the detection distance range and a cocktail making instruction is received, the cocktail making mode will be entered, which is conducive to being more in line with the user's cocktail making habits. The smart refrigerator can personalize the cocktail making scene, improve the level of intelligence, and enhance the user experience.

[0104] Optionally, the refrigerator determining that the operating mode is the e-sports mode includes: the refrigerator detecting whether the distance between the user and the refrigerator is within a detection distance interval. If the distance between the user and the refrigerator is within the detection distance interval, the refrigerator receives an e-sports instruction. Upon receiving the e-sports instruction, the refrigerator controls the operating mode of the refrigerator to the e-sports mode.

[0105] In this way, if the distance between the user and the refrigerator is within the detection distance range and an e-sports command is received, the e-sports mode will be entered, which is conducive to the personalized realization of e-sports scenes in smart refrigerators, improving the level of intelligence and enhancing user experience.
