[0027] In order to be able to understand the features and technical content of the embodiments of the present disclosure in more detail, the implementation of the embodiments of the present disclosure is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings are for reference only and are not used to limit the embodiments of the present disclosure. In the following technical description, for the sake of convenience of explanation, a full understanding of the disclosed embodiments is provided through multiple details. However, one or more embodiments can still be implemented without these details. In other cases, to simplify the drawings, well-known structures and devices can be simplified for display.
[0028] In the description and claims of the embodiments of the present disclosure, as well as in the accompanying drawings, the terms "first," "second," and the like are used to distinguish similar items and are not necessarily used to describe a particular order or precedence. It should be understood that the terms used in this manner are interchangeable where appropriate to describe the embodiments of the present disclosure herein. In addition, the terms "including," "having," and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions.
[0029] Unless otherwise stated, the term "plurality" means two or more.
[0030] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the character " / " indicates that the preceding and following objects are in an "or" relationship. For example, A / B means: A or B.
[0031] The term "and / or" describes an association between objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B means: A or B, or A and B.
[0032] Shoes are a necessity for people's lives. As people's living standards improve, users tend to wear designated footwear, such as slippers and indoor shoes, when entering indoor spaces. They also place designated objects, such as shoe cabinets and shoe racks, in designated locations indoors to store the designated footwear. In the disclosed embodiments, corresponding devices with distance detection and communication capabilities, such as Bluetooth modules and Wi-Fi modules, can be configured in the designated footwear, designated objects, and air conditioners. This allows the layout position information corresponding to the first pair of shoes worn by a person to be determined based on the distance between each designated shoe and the designated object, as well as each air conditioner indoor unit, and the pressure applied to each designated shoe. Based on this layout position information, each air conditioner can then determine the number of people within its corresponding operating area and perform corresponding air conditioning control based on this number of people. Consequently, the air conditioner can automatically determine the start and stop of the air conditioner and the load level based on the human position information and the number of people. This reduces the likelihood of situations such as people forgetting to turn off the air conditioner after leaving or insufficient load due to excessive occupancy, thereby improving the accuracy and intelligence of air conditioning control.
[0033] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of a scenario for air conditioning control provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 1 As shown, there is a set target object, namely a shoe cabinet, near the indoor entrance. There may be one, two, or more set shoes, namely slippers, in the shoe cabinet. Of course, there may be no slippers in the shoe cabinet. However, there may be slippers in one, two, or more locations in the room, or there may be no slippers. Figure 1 In the example, there is a slipper in room 1, namely target 1. Similarly, one, two or more rooms in the room are equipped with air conditioner indoor units, such as Figure 1 As shown, there is indoor unit 1 in room 1 and indoor unit 2 in room 2.
[0034] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, corresponding devices with distance monitoring and communication functions are configured in the slippers, shoe cabinets, and air conditioners. Here, Bluetooth modules can be configured in the slippers, shoe cabinets, and air conditioners. In this way, the distance between each set shoe and the set target object, as well as each air conditioner indoor unit, can be determined through the Bluetooth module. Figure 1 As shown, the slippers in room 1 are target 1. Through the Bluetooth module, the distance value x11 between the slippers and indoor unit 1, the distance value x12 between the slippers and indoor unit 2, and the distance value Z11 between the slippers and the shoe cabinet can be obtained.
[0035] It can be seen that through the Bluetooth module, the distance value between each slipper and each indoor unit can be determined, which can be x11, x21, x31,..., x12, x22, x32,... and so on. The distance value between each slipper and the shoe cabinet can also be determined through the Bluetooth module, which can be Z11, Z21, Z31,...
[0036] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, a pressure detection device may also be configured in the set shoe. In this way, whether the user is at home, that is, whether the set shoe is worn by someone, can be determined through the first distance value between each set shoe and the set target object, as well as the pressure value borne by each set shoe. In other words, it can be determined whether the first shoe is worn by someone.
[0037] The pressure value of each set shoe can be obtained through the pressure detection device, for example Figure 1 The pressure values borne by the slippers can be h1, h2, h3, etc. If hi is greater than the first set pressure value, the corresponding slippers can be determined to be worn by a person, while hi is less than the second set pressure value, the corresponding slippers can be determined to be unworn, where i = 1, 2, 3, etc. The first set pressure value is greater than the second set pressure value. For example, the first set pressure value can be 3 kg, 5 kg, 6 kg, etc., while the second set pressure value can be 0.5 kg, 1 kg, 1.5 kg, etc.
[0038] Therefore, if hi is greater than the first set pressure value, the corresponding slippers can be determined to be worn by someone. If hi is less than the second set pressure value, the corresponding slippers can be determined to be unworn. However, in some embodiments, the user may be resting indoors on a sofa, bed, or other place. In this case, the corresponding slippers should also be worn by someone. Therefore, a judgment can also be made based on the distance between the corresponding slippers and the shoe. If the distance between the corresponding slippers and the shoe is greater than a set distance value, the corresponding slippers can be determined to be worn by someone. The set distance value can be 1.5m, 2.0m, 2.5m, etc., depending on the size and layout of the room. Thus, even if hi is less than the second set pressure value, but the corresponding slippers are not in the shoe cabinet or are not within the set range of the shoe cabinet, the corresponding slippers can still be determined to be worn by someone.
[0039] Once the first shoe is identified, the layout information of each first shoe within the set area can be determined based on the second distance between each first shoe and each air conditioner indoor unit and the first distance value corresponding to the first shoe. Thus, each air conditioner can determine the number of people in the active area and perform corresponding air conditioning control.
[0040] Figure 2 This is a flow chart of an air conditioning control method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 1 、 Figure 2 , the process of air conditioning control includes:
[0041] Step 201: Based on the Bluetooth module, obtain the distance value between the shoe and the air conditioner.
[0042] The set shoe and the air conditioner are configured with a corresponding device having distance detection and communication functions, such as a Bluetooth module, a WiFi module, etc. In this way, any indoor unit of the air conditioner can be the current air conditioner, and the current air conditioner can obtain the distance value between each set shoe and the air conditioner through the device having distance detection and communication functions, for example, by using the Bluetooth module.
[0043] To save energy, in some embodiments, the Bluetooth module in the set shoe is turned on only when the set conditions are met, that is, before obtaining the distance value between the set shoe and the air conditioner, it also includes: obtaining the pressure value borne by the set shoe through the pressure detection device configured in each set shoe; when the current pressure value borne by the current set shoe is greater than the set start-up pressure value, controlling the Bluetooth module of the current set shoe to start.
[0044] Among them, the set starting pressure value is relatively small, which can be 0.5kg, 1kg, 1.5kg, etc.
[0045] Step 202: Determine the layout position information of the set shoe within the set area according to the distance value.
[0046] In some embodiments, the layout position information of each set shoe in the set area can be determined based on the distance value between the set shoe and the air conditioner. For example, there are three rooms in the set area, each room has a corresponding air conditioner, among which shoes 1, 2, and 3 are in room 1, shoes 5 and shoes 6 are in room 2, and there are no shoes in room 3.
[0047] In some application scenarios, the set shoes may be indoor shoes, such as slippers, floor shoes, etc., which are mostly in set target objects, such as shoe cabinets. Therefore, in some embodiments, determining the layout position information of the set shoes in the set area includes: obtaining the pressure value borne by the set shoes through the pressure detection device configured in each set shoe, and obtaining the first distance value between each set shoe and the set target object in the set area based on the Bluetooth module; determining the first shoe worn by someone based on the first distance value and the pressure value borne by each set shoe; determining the layout position information of each first shoe in the set area based on the second distance value between each first shoe and each air-conditioning indoor unit in the set area, and the first distance value corresponding to the first shoe.
[0048] A set of shoes, a set of target objects, and a corresponding device with distance detection and communication capabilities, such as a Bluetooth module or a Wi-Fi module, are configured in the air conditioner. Any indoor air conditioner unit can be the active air conditioner. The active air conditioner can obtain a first distance value between each set of shoes and the set target object using the device with distance detection and communication capabilities. Furthermore, a pressure detection device is configured in the set of shoes. Similarly, the active air conditioner can obtain a pressure value applied to each set of shoes. Thus, based on the first distance and pressure values, the first shoe can be determined to be worn by a person.
[0049] In some embodiments, a first distance value between each set shoe and a set target object is obtained through a Bluetooth module configured in each set shoe and a Bluetooth module configured in a set target object; after obtaining a pressure value borne by the set shoe through a pressure detection device configured in each set shoe, determining that the first shoe is worn by a person includes: when a current pressure value borne by the current set shoe is greater than a first set pressure value, determining that the current set shoe is the first shoe worn by a person; and, when a current first distance value corresponding to the current set shoe is greater than the set distance value, if the current pressure value is less than a second set pressure value, determining that the current set shoe is the first shoe worn by a person; wherein the first set pressure value is less than the second set pressure value.
[0050] For example, if the first set pressure value is 5.5 kg, the second set pressure value is 1.5 kg, and the set distance value is 1.5 m, then if the current first distance value between the current set shoe and the set target is 1 m and the corresponding current pressure value is 45 kg, then since 45 kg > 1.5 kg, the current set shoe can be determined to be the first shoe worn by someone. Alternatively, if the current first distance value is 2 m and the corresponding current pressure value is 0.2 kg, then since 0.2 kg < 1.5 kg, but 2 m > 1.5 m, the current set shoe can also be determined to be the first shoe worn by someone.
[0051] Set the shoes, set the target object, and configure the corresponding Bluetooth module in the air conditioner. Therefore, through pairing, distance detection and communication of the Bluetooth module, each air conditioner indoor unit can obtain the first distance value between each set shoe and the set target object, as well as the pressure value that each set shoe is subjected to.
[0052] The Bluetooth module consumes relatively low power, and when the user wears the set shoes for walking, the configured power generation device can also generate electricity, further reducing energy consumption.
[0053] Of course, the present disclosure is not limited to this. The shoe set, the target object, and the air conditioner are also equipped with a WIFI module, an infrared module, and other devices with distance detection and communication functions. The specific process will not be described in detail.
[0054] In the above step 201, based on the Bluetooth module, the distance value between the set shoe and the air conditioner has been obtained, and the obtained distance value includes the second distance value between the first shoe and each air conditioner indoor unit in the set area.
[0055] In some embodiments, the target point position information of each first shoe is determined based on the second distance value between each first shoe and each air-conditioning indoor unit in the set area, and the corresponding first distance value; and the layout position information matching each target point position information is determined based on the saved layout plane information of the set area.
[0056] like Figure 1 As shown, the current first shoe can be target 1, and the current air conditioner can obtain the distance value x11 between the slippers and indoor unit 1, the distance value x12 between the slippers and indoor unit 2, and the distance value Z11 between the slippers and the shoe cabinet. The three distances can confirm the plane position of a point. The target point position information of the current first shoe can be determined based on x11, x12, and Z11. Then, the layout position information of the current first shoe can be determined based on the saved indoor layout plane information.
[0057] Step 203: Control the corresponding air conditioner to operate according to the layout position information.
[0058] In some embodiments, controlling the corresponding air conditioner to operate includes: determining the current number of people in the current air conditioner effective area according to the layout position information, and controlling the operation of the current air conditioner according to the current number of people.
[0059] The current air conditioner determines the layout position information of each first shoe in the set area, and can determine the current number of people in the effective area. Among them, the current air conditioner determines that the current first shoe is in the corresponding effective area based on the layout position information of the current first shoe, and can increase the number of people in the effective area by 1.
[0060] Then, the current air conditioner can control the current air conditioner operation according to the current number of people information. In some embodiments, the greater the current number of people information, the higher the indoor fan gear of the air conditioner corresponding to the air conditioner, the lower the target temperature corresponding to the cooling mode, and the higher the target temperature corresponding to the heating mode.
[0061] In some embodiments, controlling the current air-conditioning operation according to the current number of people information includes: when the current number of people information is zero, controlling the current air-conditioning to be in the off state; when the current number of people information is not zero, determining the current active rest state of users in the effective area, and controlling the current air-conditioning operation according to the current number of people information and the current active rest state.
[0062] If the current number of people is zero, that is, no one is in the air conditioner's operating area, the air conditioner can be controlled to be turned off. If the current air conditioner is detected to be on, it will be turned off. This can avoid the situation where people leave and leave the air conditioner, further saving resources.
[0063] When the current air-conditioning information is not zero, it is necessary to determine the current activity and rest status of the user in the effective area. In some embodiments, the current activity and rest status of the user in the effective area can be determined including: when the current first pressure value corresponding to the current first shoe in the current air-conditioning effective area is less than or equal to the third set pressure value, determining that the current user corresponding to the current first shoe is in a resting state; when the current first pressure value is greater than or equal to the third set pressure value, determining that the current user corresponding to the current first shoe is in an active state.
[0064] The third set pressure value is less than or equal to the second set pressure value, and can be 0, 0.5 kg, 1 kg, etc.
[0065] For example, if the first pair of shoes is within the effective area of the air conditioner and the first pressure value is less than or equal to 0.5 kg, it indicates that the user corresponding to the first pair of shoes may not be wearing the first pair of shoes and may be lying on the bed, sofa, or other furniture. In this case, it can be determined that the user is in a resting state.
[0066] In some embodiments, after determining the current active rest state of users in the effective area, controlling the current air-conditioning operation includes: when the current active rest state includes a rest state, controlling the air-conditioning to operate in a low air volume silent mode; when the current active rest state does not include a rest state, obtaining the current number difference between the current number of people information and the previous number of people information, and controlling the current air-conditioning operation based on the current number difference.
[0067] After determining the current active and resting status of the users in the current air-conditioning action area based on the pressure value corresponding to each first shoe, if the current user is in a resting state, that is, the current active and resting state includes the resting state, the current user in the resting state can be given priority, that is, the current air-conditioning is controlled to operate in low air volume silent mode.
[0068] The current active rest state does not include the rest state. The current number difference between the current number of people information and the previous number of people information can be obtained, and the current air conditioning operation can be controlled based on the current number difference. In some embodiments, when the current number difference is greater than zero, a current control strategy corresponding to the current number difference is determined; and the current air conditioning operation is controlled based on the current control strategy; wherein the current number difference is divided into a set number of gears, and a larger gear corresponds to a higher indoor fan gear in the corresponding current control strategy, and the target temperature corresponding to the cooling mode is lower, and the target temperature corresponding to the heating mode is higher.
[0069] For example, if you set the number to 2, the current air volume level of the air conditioner will be used as the reference. In the control strategy, for each additional person, the air volume level will increase by one level, and the temperature adjustment will include decreasing by one degree in cooling mode and increasing by one degree in heating mode. This also reduces the chance of the air conditioner being underloaded due to a large number of people in the area.
[0070] It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the layout position information corresponding to the first shoe worn by someone can be determined based on the distance between each set shoe and the set target object, each air-conditioning indoor unit, and the pressure value borne by each set shoe. Then, based on the layout position information, each air-conditioner determines the number of people in the corresponding action area and performs corresponding air-conditioning control based on the number of people. In this way, the start and stop of the air-conditioning and the load level can be automatically determined based on the position information and the number of people of the human body, reducing the probability of people forgetting to turn off the machine when they leave, insufficient load due to too many people, etc., thereby improving the accuracy of air-conditioning control and also improving the intelligence of air-conditioning control.
[0071] The operation processes are summarized into specific embodiments below to illustrate the air conditioning control process provided by the embodiments of the present invention.
[0072] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the user's air conditioning control scene can be as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the footwear is set to slippers, and the target is set to a shoe cabinet. In this way, the slippers, shoe cabinet, and each air conditioner indoor unit are equipped with Bluetooth modules and are successfully connected. Furthermore, the slippers are also equipped with pressure sensors. The first set pressure value can be 5 kg, the second set pressure value can be 1 kg, and the third set pressure value can also be 1 kg. The set distance value is 2 meters, and the set number is 2. Here, indoor unit 1 is used as an example for description. Of course, the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this. Any air conditioner indoor unit can perform the following control process.
[0073] Figure 3 This is a flow chart of an air conditioning control method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 1 、 Figure 3 , the air conditioning control process includes:
[0074] Step 301: Through the Bluetooth module, the air conditioner indoor unit 1 obtains the first distance value between the slippers and the shoe cabinet every day, which are Z11, Z21, Z31,..., and obtains the pressure value of each slipper through the Bluetooth module and the pressure sensor, which are h, h2, h3...
[0075] Step 302: The air-conditioning indoor unit 1 determines the current slipper and obtains the corresponding current first distance value Zi1 and the current pressure value hi, where i=1, 2, 3...
[0076] Step 303: Determine whether hi>5kg is true. If so, go to step 306; otherwise, go to step 304.
[0077] Step 304: Determine whether Zi1>2m holds. If so, proceed to step 305; otherwise, proceed to step 307.
[0078] Step 305: Determine whether hi<1kg holds. If so, proceed to step 306; otherwise, proceed to step 307.
[0079] Step 306: The air conditioner indoor unit 1 determines that the current slippers are the first footwear.
[0080] Step 307: Has each slipper been determined as the current slipper? If so, proceed to step 308; otherwise, return to step 302.
[0081] Step 308: The air conditioner indoor unit 1 obtains the second distance between each first shoe and each air conditioner indoor unit in the room through the Bluetooth module.
[0082] like Figure 1 As shown, the second distance here can be x11, x21, x31, ..., x12, x22, x32, ... and so on.
[0083] Step 309: The air conditioner indoor unit 1 determines the target point position information of each first shoe according to the second distance value and the corresponding first distance value, and determines the layout position information matching each target point position information according to the saved layout plane information of the set area.
[0084] like Figure 1 As shown, target 1 corresponds to the current first shoe. The plane position of a point can be determined based on the three distances of the second distance values x11 and x12, and the corresponding first distance value Z11, so as to determine the target point position information of the current first shoe. Then, the layout position information of the current first shoe can be determined based on the saved indoor layout plane information.
[0085] Step 310: The air-conditioning indoor unit 1 determines the current number of people in the current air-conditioning effective area according to the layout position information.
[0086] Step 311: Determine whether the current number of people is equal to zero. If so, proceed to step 312; otherwise, proceed to step 313.
[0087] Step 312: The air conditioner indoor unit 1 controls the unit to be in a shutdown state.
[0088] Step 313: The air-conditioning indoor unit 1 determines the current activity or rest state of each user in the active area according to the pressure value corresponding to each first shoe in the active area.
[0089] Step 314: Does the current active rest state include a rest state? If so, execute step 315; otherwise, execute step 316.
[0090] Step 315: The air conditioner indoor unit 1 controls the unit to operate in a low air volume silent mode.
[0091] Step 316: the air conditioner indoor unit 1 obtains the current number difference between the current number of people information and the previous number of people information, determines the current control strategy corresponding to the current number difference, and controls the operation of the unit according to the current control strategy.
[0092] Among them, based on the current air volume level and current target temperature of indoor unit 1, in the control strategy, the air volume level increases by one level for every two people added, and the target temperature adjustment includes: decreasing by one degree in cooling mode and increasing by one degree in heating mode.
[0093] It can be seen that in this embodiment, the distance value between the slippers and the shoe cabinet, as well as each air-conditioning indoor unit, can be obtained through the Bluetooth device, and the pressure value borne by each slipper can also be obtained. In this way, the layout position information corresponding to the first shoe worn by someone can be determined based on the distance value and the pressure value. Then, based on the layout position information, the current air-conditioning determines the number of people in the corresponding action area and performs corresponding air-conditioning control based on the number of people. In this way, the start and stop of the air-conditioning and the load level can be automatically determined based on the position information and the number of people of the human body, reducing the probability of people forgetting to turn off the machine when they leave, insufficient load due to too many people, etc., thereby improving the accuracy of air-conditioning control and also improving the intelligence of air-conditioning control.
[0094] According to the above process for air conditioning control, an apparatus for air conditioning control can be constructed.
[0095] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an air conditioning control device provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 4 As shown, the air conditioning control device 400 includes: an acquisition module 410 , a determination module 420 and a control module 430 .
[0096] The acquisition module 410 is configured to acquire a set distance value between the shoe and the air conditioner based on the Bluetooth module.
[0097] The determination module 420 is configured to determine layout position information of the set shoe within the set area according to the distance value.
[0098] The control module 430 is configured to control the operation of the corresponding air conditioner according to the layout position information.
[0099] In some embodiments, the present invention further includes: a starting module configured to obtain the pressure value of the set shoe through the pressure detection device configured in each set shoe; when the current pressure value of the current set shoe is greater than the set starting pressure value, control the Bluetooth module of the current set shoe to start.

[0112] The first control subunit is configured to, when a current first pressure value corresponding to the current first shoe in the current air-conditioning action area is less than or equal to a third set pressure value, determine that the current user corresponding to the current first shoe is in a resting state; and when the current first pressure value is greater than the third set pressure value, determine that the current user corresponding to the current first shoe is in an active state.

[0115] In some embodiments, the second control subunit is specifically configured to determine a current control strategy corresponding to the current quantity difference when the current quantity difference is greater than zero; and control the current air-conditioning operation according to the current control strategy; wherein the current quantity difference is divided into gears according to a set number, the larger the gear, the higher the indoor fan gear in the corresponding current control strategy, and the lower the target temperature corresponding to the cooling mode, and the higher the target temperature corresponding to the heating mode.
[0116] The air conditioning control process for the air conditioning control device is further described below with reference to embodiments.
[0117] In this embodiment, the user's air conditioning control scene can be as follows Figure 1 As shown, the footwear is set to slippers, and the target is set to a shoe cabinet. In this way, the slippers, shoe cabinet, and each air conditioner indoor unit are equipped with Bluetooth modules. The slippers are also equipped with pressure sensors. The starting pressure value can be set to 0.3 kg, the first set pressure value can be 5 kg, the second set pressure value can be 1 kg, and the third set pressure value can also be 1 kg. The set distance value is 2 meters, and the set number of targets is 2.
[0118] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an air conditioning control device provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 5 As shown, an air conditioning control device 400 can be used in an air conditioning indoor unit 1 and includes an acquisition module 410, a determination module 420, a control module 430, and a startup module 440. The determination module 420 includes a first acquisition unit 421, a first determination unit 422, and a second determination unit 423. The control module 430 includes a third determination unit 431, a first control unit 432, and a second control unit 433. The second control unit 433 includes a first control subunit 4331 and a second control subunit 4332.
[0119] The pressure detection device configured in each set shoe obtains the pressure value of the set shoe; when the current pressure value of the current set shoe is greater than 0.3kg, the startup module 440 controls the Bluetooth module of the current set shoe to start.
[0120] Through the Bluetooth module, the acquisition module 410 in the device 400 for air conditioning control in the air conditioning indoor unit 1 can acquire the distance value between the set shoe and the air conditioner.
[0121] The first acquisition unit 421 in the determination module 420 obtains the first distance values between the slippers and the shoe cabinet for each day, namely, Z11, Z21, Z31, ..., and obtains the pressure value exerted on each slipper through the Bluetooth module and the pressure sensor, namely, h2, h3, .... Thus, if the pressure value hi > 5 kg, the first determination unit 422 can determine that the corresponding slipper is the first footwear. If hi ≤ 1 kg, but Zi1 > 2 m, the first determination unit 422 can also determine that the corresponding slipper is the first footwear.
[0122] The distance value between the set shoes and the air conditioner obtained by the acquisition module 410 includes the second distance between each first shoe and each air conditioner indoor unit in the room. In this way, after the first determination module 422 determines that someone is wearing the first shoe, the second determination module 423 in the determination module 420 in the device 400 for air conditioning control in the air conditioner indoor unit 1 determines the target point position information of each first shoe based on the second distance value and the corresponding first distance value, and determines the layout position information that matches each target point position information based on the saved layout plane information of the set area.
[0123] Thus, the third determination unit 431 in the control module 430 can determine the current number of people within the current air conditioning active area based on the layout location information. If the current number of people is zero, the first control unit 432 can control the air conditioning indoor unit 1 to be in the off state. If the current number of people is not zero, the first control subunit 4331 in the second control unit 433 can determine the current active / resting state of each user within the active area based on the pressure value corresponding to each first shoe item within the active area. If the current active / resting state includes the resting state, the second control subunit 4332 in the second control unit 433 controls the air conditioning indoor unit 1 to operate in low air volume silent mode. If the current active / resting state does not include the resting state, the second control subunit 4332 obtains the current number difference between the current number of people and the previous number of people, determines the current control strategy corresponding to the current number difference, and controls the operation of the air conditioning indoor unit 1 according to the current control strategy. Among them, based on the current air volume level and current target temperature of indoor unit 1, in the control strategy, for every two people added, the air volume level increases by one level, and the target temperature adjustment includes: decreasing by one degree in cooling mode and increasing by one degree in heating mode.
[0124] It can be seen that in this embodiment, the device for air conditioning control obtains the distance value between the slippers and the shoe cabinet, as well as each air conditioning indoor unit through the Bluetooth device, and also obtains the pressure value that each slipper bears. In this way, the layout position information corresponding to the first shoe worn by someone can be determined based on the distance value and the pressure value. Then, based on the layout position information, the current air conditioner determines the number of people in the corresponding action area and performs corresponding air conditioning control based on the number of people. In this way, the start and stop of the air conditioner and the load level can be automatically determined based on the position information and the number of people of the human body, reducing the probability of people forgetting to turn off the machine when they leave and insufficient load due to too many people, thereby improving the accuracy of air conditioning control and improving the intelligence of air conditioning control.
