Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202210191940.8, entitled "METHOD FOR CONTROLLING LIGHT EMITTING ASSEMBLY, LIGHT EMITTING ASSEMBLY, AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS," filed with the State Intellectual Property Office of the People's Republic of China on February 28, 2022, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0002] [Technical field] The present application relates to the field of display technology, and in particular to a method for controlling a light emitting assembly, a light emitting assembly, and an electronic device. [Background technology]

[0003] With the rapid development of electronic devices, most electronic devices have luminous glass, such as vehicle sunroof glass. Sunroof glass is a type of luminous glass. Existing luminous glass allows electronic devices to provide various visual effects, such as starry sky effects, blue sky effects, or natural landscape effects. Existing methods for manufacturing vehicle sunroof glass typically involve using a laser engraving method to form a laser-engraved texture on the interior of the glass, illuminating the glass from the side, and using the glass's light-guiding mechanism to retain the light in the laser-engraved texture, thereby forming a luminous image on the glass. However, the laser-engraved texture formed on the interior of the glass is monotonous, resulting in a monotonous visual effect for the vehicle sunroof glass. Summary of the Invention

[0004] SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present application provide a method, a light emitting assembly and an electronic device for controlling a light emitting assembly to form multiple different light emitting images and achieve multiple visual effects.

[0005] According to a first aspect, one embodiment of the present application provides a light-emitting assembly. The light-emitting assembly includes a stacked first light-transmitting layer and a second light-transmitting layer, and the light-emitting assembly may further include a first light adjustment layer and a first light source. The first light adjustment layer is disposed between the first light-transmitting layer and the second light-transmitting layer, and a first element group is disposed on the first light adjustment layer, the first element group including at least one first element, the transparency of the at least one first element being adjustable. The first light source is located on a side of the first light adjustment layer. The at least one first element is capable of emitting light emitted by the first light source to the outside of the second light-transmitting layer, away from the first light adjustment layer. In this embodiment of the present application, the transparency of at least one first element in the first element group is adjusted, and light is irradiated onto the first element, thereby presenting multiple light-emitting images.

[0006] The transparency adjustment may be performed on the plurality of first elements as a whole, or the transparency of each first element in the plurality of first elements may be adjusted independently.

[0007] The plurality of first elements may be arranged on the first light adjusting layer to form a preset image, for example, a triangle, a five-pointed star, etc. Of course, the plurality of first elements may alternatively be arranged in an array on the first light adjusting layer.

[0008] In some particular implementations, the light emitting assembly may further include a second light adjusting layer disposed between the first light transmitting layer and the second light transmitting layer, the second element group disposed on the second light adjusting layer, the second element group including at least one second element, the transparency of the at least one second element being adjustable, and a second light source located on a side of the second light adjusting layer, the at least one second element being capable of emitting light emitted by the second light source outward from the second light transmitting layer and away from the second light adjusting layer.

[0009] In this embodiment of the present application, the transparency of a first element in a first element group is adjusted, and when a first light source illuminates the first element, a first image is displayed under the influence of the first element. In addition, the transparency of a second element in a second element group is adjusted, and when a second light source illuminates the second element, a second image is displayed under the influence of the second element. The first image and the second image are superimposed to display a luminous image. Therefore, by separately adjusting the transparency of the first element in the first element group and the transparency of the second element in the second element group, a richer luminous image can be displayed, which can better meet user requirements.

[0010] In a specific implementation, the transparency of each first element in the first element group can be independently adjusted, and the first elements in the first element group are arranged in an array on the first light adjustment layer. When the transparency of each first element in the first element group is independently changed, the light emitted by the first light source is irradiated onto different first elements to present different luminous images. In this way, more luminous images can be presented, and the presented luminous images can better meet user requirements, thereby enriching the user's visual experience.

[0011] In certain implementations, the first light source includes at least one LED light, the at least one LED light being disposed on at least one side of the light emitting assembly, the light emitting assembly being configured to control the at least one LED light of the LED lights to emit light. In The light emitting device may further include a light emitting circuit.

[0012] In a specific implementation, the lighting circuit is further configured to control the brightness and wavelength of the light emitted by the at least one LED light. In this embodiment of the present application, the brightness and wavelength of the light emitted by the at least one LED light are controlled, so that the brightness and color of the emitted light can be adjusted. This can meet the user's requirements for luminous images and provide more abundant and colorful luminous images.

[0013] In certain implementations, the light emitting assembly further includes a light guiding structure disposed on the first light adjustment layer. The light guiding structure is configured to transmit light from the first light source to at least one first element. In this embodiment of the present application, the light guiding structure can accurately transmit light to a designated element to obtain a more accurate luminescent image, thereby meeting user requirements for the luminescent image.

[0014] In a specific implementation, the light-guiding structure includes a plurality of optical fibers disposed on the first light adjustment layer and distributed among the first elements in the first element group, with the plurality of first elements in the first element group corresponding one-to-one to the plurality of optical fibers. When each element corresponds to one optical fiber, the illumination of each element can be precisely controlled, thereby generating more light-emitting images and improving the accuracy of the light-emitting images. In addition, the light-emitting assembly can emit light locally because local elements can be precisely illuminated.

[0015] According to a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for controlling a light emitting assembly.

The at least one first element is capable of emitting light emitted by the first light source toward the outside of the second light transmitting layer, away from the first light adjusting layer. The method may include the steps of: receiving a first operation from a user; adjusting the transparency of at least one first element in the first element group in the first light adjusting layer of the light emitting assembly in response to the first operation; and controlling the first light source of the light emitting assembly to emit light. In this embodiment of the present application, the transparency of at least one first element in the first element group can be adjusted to illuminate the first elements, thereby presenting multiple luminescent images.

[0016] In certain implementations, controlling the first light source of the light-emitting assembly to emit light may specifically include obtaining a second user operation, determining a first position on the light-emitting assembly corresponding to the user or a first body part of the user in response to the second operation, and driving one or more elements located at the first position to emit the light emitted by the first light source based on the first position. The elements emit the light emitted by the first light source into a space where the user or the first body part of the user is located, thereby illuminating the local space. In addition, as the user or the first body part of the user moves, the elements illuminated by the light emitted by the first light source change accordingly. Thus, the light emitted by the first light source moves in accordance with the user's movement, thereby realizing a light tracking effect.

[0017] In a specific implementation, the step of controlling the first light source of the light-emitting assembly to emit light may include the step of receiving a third user operation and adjusting the brightness and wavelength of the light emitted by the first light source in response to the third operation.

[0019] In certain implementations, controlling the first light source of the light emitting assembly to emit light specifically includes collecting first information, the first information representing information about an environment and / or an electronic device, and driving the first light source to emit light based on the first information. The environment may be weather, location, time, etc. The information about the electronic device may be information that changes information about the electronic device. For example, the electronic device may be a vehicle, and the information about the electronic device may include the number of people in the vehicle, the age group of the people, etc.

[0022] In this embodiment of the present application, the transparency of a first element in a first element group is adjusted, and when a first light source illuminates the first element, a first image is displayed under the influence of the first element. In addition, the transparency of a second element in a second element group is adjusted, and when a second light source illuminates the second element, a second image is displayed under the influence of the second element. The first image and the second image are superimposed to display a luminous image. Therefore, by separately adjusting the transparency of the first element in the first element group and the transparency of the second element in the second element group, a richer luminous image can be displayed, which can better meet user requirements.

[0023] In a specific implementation, the transparency of each first element in the first element group can be independently adjusted, and the first elements in the first element group are arranged in an array on the first light adjustment layer. When the transparency of each first element in the first element group is independently changed, the light emitted by the first light source is irradiated onto different first elements to present different luminous images. In this way, more luminous images can be presented, and the presented luminous images can better meet user requirements, thereby enriching the user's visual experience.

[0024] In certain implementations, the first light source includes at least one LED light, the at least one LED light being disposed on at least one side of the light emitting assembly, the light emitting assembly being configured to control the at least one LED light of the LED lights to emit light.

In this embodiment of the present application, adjusting the transparency of at least one first element in the first element group and irradiating the first element with light can present a plurality of light emitting images.

[0027] In certain implementations, the light emitting assembly includes stacked first and second light transmitting layers.

The at least one second element is capable of emitting light emitted by the second light source outward from the second light transmitting layer and away from the second light adjusting layer. The electronic device further performs the following operations: adjusting the transparency of the at least one second element and controlling the light emitted by the second light source to illuminate the at least one second element.

[0029] In this embodiment of the present application, the transparency of a first element in a first element group is adjusted, and when a first light source illuminates the first element, a first image is displayed under the influence of the first element. In addition, the transparency of a second element in a second element group is adjusted, and when a second light source illuminates the second element, a second image is displayed under the influence of the second element. The first image and the second image are superimposed to display a luminous image. Therefore, by separately adjusting the transparency of the first element in the first element group and the transparency of the second element in the second element group, a richer luminous image can be displayed, which can better meet user requirements.

[0030] In a specific implementation, the transparency of each first element in the first element group can be independently adjusted, and the first elements in the first element group are arranged in an array on the first light adjustment layer.

In addition, as the user or the first body part of the user moves, the elements illuminated by the light emitted by the first light source change accordingly. Thus, the light emitted by the first light source moves with the user's movement, thereby achieving a light tracking effect.

[0034] In a specific implementation, the electronic device further performs the following operations: receiving a second user operation, and adjusting the brightness and wavelength of the light emitted by the first light source in response to the second operation. In this embodiment of the present application, the brightness and wavelength of the light emitted by the first light source are controlled, so that the brightness and color of the emitted light are adjustable.

Thus, a feature qualified by "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more features. In the description of embodiments of this application, unless otherwise specified, "a plurality of" means two or more than two.

[0046] Additionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the words "example" or "for example" are used to indicate providing an example, illustration, or explanation. Any embodiment or design scheme described in the embodiments of the present application as an "example" or "for example" should not be described as being preferred or having more advantages over another embodiment or design scheme. Specifically, the use of words such as "example," "for example," etc. is intended to present the relevant concept in a particular way.

[0047] Currently, light-emitting assemblies can present luminous images to satisfy users' visual experiences. The specific implementation principle is as follows: Typically, the laser-engraved texture shown in FIG. 1 is formed inside the glass using a laser engraving method, and the glass is illuminated from the side, and the light is retained in the laser-engraved texture by using the glass's light-guiding mechanism, thereby forming a luminous image on the glass. However, the laser-engraved texture formed inside the glass is monotonous, which leads to the monotony of the luminous image presented by the light-emitting assembly.

[0048] To solve the aforementioned technical problems, one embodiment of the present application provides a schematic diagram of the structure of a light-emitting assembly 100, as shown in FIG. 2. The light-emitting assembly 100 may include a first light-transmitting layer 11, a second light-transmitting layer 13, and a first light-adjusting layer 12. The first light-transmitting layer 11, the second light-transmitting layer 13, and the first light-adjusting layer 12 are stacked, with the first light-adjusting layer 12 disposed between the first light-transmitting layer 11 and the second light-transmitting layer 13. The first light-transmitting layer 11 and the second light-transmitting layer 13 may be made of a glass material or another transparent material such as acrylic. This is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present application. The first light-adjusting layer 12 may be understood to be completely transparent. A first element group 121 is disposed on the first light-adjusting layer 12. The first element group 121 may include at least one first element, and the transparency of the at least one first element is adjustable. In this way, the transparency at the position of the at least one first element in the first light adjusting layer 12 is adjustable. The light emitting assembly may further include a first light source 14, which is located on a side of the first light adjusting layer. Light emitted by the first light source 14 is irradiated onto the at least one first element. The at least one first element may emit the light emitted by the first light source 14 to the outside of the second light transmitting layer, away from the first light adjusting layer.

[0049] The specific principle is as follows: if at least one first element in the first element group is completely transparent, when light emitted by the first light source 14 is emitted to the first element, the light emitted by the first light source 14 passes through the first element and is emitted outside the first light transmission layer, away from the first light adjustment layer, as shown in Fig. 3. If at least one first element in the first element group is not completely transparent, when light emitted by the first light source 14 is emitted to the at least one first element, the at least one first element can emit the light emitted by the first light source 14 to the outside of the second light transmission layer, away from the first light adjustment layer, to present a luminescent image, as shown in Fig. 4.

[0050] For example, the first element group includes A first elements, where A is a positive integer greater than 2. When light emitted by the first light source 14 is irradiated onto the n first elements, the transparency of the n first elements is a first threshold, and the n first elements emit the light emitted by the first light source 14 to the outside of the second light transmission layer, away from the first light adjustment layer, to form a first light-emitting image, where n is a positive integer smaller than A and greater than 1. For example, as shown in (1) of FIG. 5, the first elements in the first element group 121 are arranged in the shape of a six-pointed star. When the transparency of all the first elements is at the first threshold, i.e., when all the first elements are not completely transparent, when the light emitted by the first light source 14 is emitted to all the first elements, these first elements emit the light emitted by the first light source 14 to the outside of the second light transmission layer, away from the first light adjustment layer, thereby presenting a luminous image of a six-pointed star as shown in (2) of Figure 5.

[0051] For example, the first element group 121 includes A first elements, where A is a positive integer greater than 2. When light emitted by the first light source 14 is irradiated onto m first elements, the transparency of the m first elements is a second threshold, and the m first elements emit the light emitted by the first light source 14 to the outside of the second light transmission layer, away from the first light adjustment layer, to form a second reflected image, where m is a positive integer smaller than A and greater than 1, and the second threshold is different from the first threshold. For example, as shown in FIG. 6 (1), the first elements in the first element group 121 are arranged in the shape of a six-pointed star. Here, it is assumed that the six-pointed star image is divided into two parts. The first part is the six corners of the six-pointed star image, and the second part is the part of the six-pointed star image other than the six corners. When the first elements corresponding to the first portion are completely transparent and the transparency of the first elements corresponding to the second portion is at a second threshold, i.e., when the first elements are not completely transparent, when light emitted by the first light source 14 is emitted to the first elements corresponding to the second portion, these first elements emit the light emitted by the first light source 14 to the outside of the second light transmission layer, away from the first light adjustment layer, thereby presenting a hexagonal light-emitting image as shown in (2) of Figure 6.

[0052] In conclusion, in one embodiment of the present application, the transparency of at least one first element in a first element group is adjusted and light is irradiated onto these first elements, thereby presenting multiple luminescent images.

[0053] In an embodiment of the present application, the material of the first elements in the first element group 121 may be polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC). Of course, in an embodiment of the present application, the material of the first elements is not limited to polymer dispersed liquid crystal, and may alternatively be another material, for example, an ethylene carbonate (EC) material or a suspended particle device (SPD) material. A common feature of these materials is that their transparency can be adjusted by adjusting the voltage. In an embodiment of the present application, an example in which the material of the first elements is PDLC is used for explanation.

[0054] In one embodiment of the present application, there are multiple first elements in the first element group, and transparency adjustment can be performed for the multiple first elements in the following manners: Method 1: Transparency adjustment can be performed for the multiple first elements as a whole. Specifically, a first electrode is arranged at a first end of the first element group 121 of the first light adjustment layer 12, and a second electrode is arranged at a second end of the first element group 121. One of the first electrode and the second electrode is a com electrode. In this way, the electrode can cover the multiple first elements in the first element group 121, and transparency adjustment can be performed for the covered multiple first elements as a whole. Method 2: The transparency of the first elements in the multiple first elements can be adjusted independently. Specifically, each first element in the first element group 121 is an independent element, and a first electrode is arranged at a first end of each first element in the first element group 121 of the first light adjustment layer 12, and a second electrode is arranged at a second end of the first element. In this way, each electrode can cover one first element, and the voltage on each first element can be adjusted separately, thereby independently adjusting the transparency of the first elements.

[0055] For example, the transparency of each of the first elements within the plurality of first elements can be independently adjusted. As shown in FIG. 7A, the first elements of the first element group 121 are arranged in an array on the first light adjustment layer 12. When all of the first elements are not completely transparent, when light emitted by the first light source 14 is emitted to all of the first elements, these first elements emit the light emitted by the first light source 14 to the outside of the second light transmission layer, away from the first light adjustment layer, thereby presenting the luminescence image shown in FIG. 7B. Similarly, when light emitted by the first light source 14 is emitted to different combinations of first elements, these first elements emit the light emitted by the first light source 14 to the outside of the second light transmission layer, away from the first light adjustment layer, thereby presenting different luminescence images. In this way, when the transparency of each first element of the first element group 121 is independently changed, the light emitted by the first light source 14 is irradiated onto different first elements, thereby presenting different luminescence images. Therefore, more luminous images can be presented, and the presented luminous images can better meet the user requirements, thereby enriching the user's visual experience.

[0056] In certain implementations, the transparency of first elements in a plurality of first elements is adjusted independently. In this case, the transparency of these first elements may be adjusted synchronously or asynchronously. Synchronous transparency adjustment may be understood to mean that the pace at which the transparency of the plurality of first elements is adjusted is consistent. For example, at the same point in time, the adjusted transparency of the plurality of first elements is the same. Asynchronous transparency adjustment may be understood to mean that the pace at which the transparency of the plurality of first elements is adjusted is not consistent. For example, at the same point in time, the transparency of a first portion of first elements in the plurality of first elements is a first value and the transparency of a second portion of first elements in the plurality of first elements is a second value, where the second value is different from the first value and the second portion of the first elements is different from the first portion of the first elements.

[0057] In the embodiments of the present application, the first elements in the first element group 121 may be arranged in different manners on the first light adjustment layer 12. For example, if the number of first elements in the first element group 121 is three or more, the first elements in the first element group 121 may be arranged in a preset image on the first light adjustment layer 12, such as a triangle, a five-pointed star, a hexagon, a text image, etc. Of course, if there are multiple first elements in the first element group 121, the first elements in the first element group 121 may be arranged in an array on the first light adjustment layer 12. For example, the first elements in the first element group 121 are uniformly distributed on the first light adjustment layer 12 based on a preset interval.

[0058] It should be noted that the shapes of the first elements in the first element group 121 may be the same or different. In addition, the first elements may have any shape, which is not particularly limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0059] In this embodiment of the present application, the first light source 14 can be in two states: an emitting state and a non-emitting state. When the first light source 14 is in the emitting state and the first element in the first element group is in a completely transparent state, the light emitting assembly can be used as ordinary glass. When the first light source 14 is in the emitting state and the first element in the first element group is in a partially transparent state, the light emitting assembly can be used as a light-blocking glass. When the first light source 14 is in the non-emitting state and the first element in the first element group is in a completely transparent state, the light emitting assembly can be used as ordinary glass. When the first light source 14 is in the non-emitting state and the first element in the first element group is in a partially transparent state, the light emitting assembly can present a different luminous image as a light emitting assembly. The partially transparent state of the first element can be understood as the first element being opaque or translucent, i.e., the transparency of the first element being between a minimum and a maximum value.

[0060] In some embodiments, the light emitting assembly 100 provided in this embodiment of the present application may further include a light emitting circuit for controlling the first light source 14 to emit light. The light emitting circuit is disposed on the light emitting assembly 100, and the light emitting circuit is configured to control the first light source 14 to emit light. Specifically, the first light source 14 may include a plurality of LED lights disposed on at least one end side of the light emitting assembly 100. For example, the plurality of LED lights may be disposed on the first end side of the first light adjusting layer 12. Alternatively, the plurality of LED lights may be disposed on the first end side and the second end side of the first light adjusting layer 12, the first end side and the second end side being opposite each other. Alternatively, the plurality of LED lights may be disposed on the first end side of the first light adjusting layer 12 and the first end side of the second light adjusting layer 15, the first end side of the first light adjusting layer 12 and the first end side of the second light adjusting layer 15 being on the same side of the light emitting assembly 100. Specifically, the light-emitting circuit is further configured to control at least one LED light of the plurality of LED lights to emit light so as to present different light-emitting images, and the light-emitting circuit is further configured to control the brightness and wavelength of the light emitted by the at least one LED light so as to present light-emitting images with different brightness and different colors.

[0061] In some embodiments, to present more luminescent images, FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of the structure of another light-emitting assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. The light-emitting assembly 100 may further include a second light adjustment layer 15 disposed between the first light-transmitting layer 11 and the second light-transmitting layer 13. The second element group 151 is disposed on the second light adjustment layer 15, and the second element group 151 includes at least one second element, and the transparency of the at least one second element is adjustable. For related descriptions of the second element group 151 and the second element within the second element group 151 herein, please refer to the above descriptions of the first element group 121 and the first element within the first element group 121. Details will not be described again herein. The light-emitting assembly 100 may further include a second light source 17, which is located on the side of the second light adjustment layer 15. The at least one second element can emit the light emitted by the second light source 17 to the outside of the second light-transmitting layer 13, away from the second light-adjusting layer 15. For the relevant description of the second light source 17 in this specification, please refer to the above description of the first light source 14. The details will not be described again in this specification.

[0062] In a specific implementation, the transparency adjustment is performed on the first element in the first element group 121 as a whole, and the transparency adjustment is performed on the second element in the second element group 151 as a whole. In this case, assume that the first element in the first element group 121 is arranged in a first preset image, and the second element in the second element group 151 is arranged in a second preset image, as shown in (1) of FIG. 9. When the transparency of the first element in the first element group 121 is a first threshold value, and the transparency of the second element in the second element group 151 is a second threshold value, light emitted by the first light source 14 is emitted to the first element in the first element group 121 to present a first image under the action of the first element, light emitted by the second light source 17 is emitted to the second element in the second element group 151 to present a second image under the action of the second element, and the first image and the second image are superimposed to form the first light-emitting image shown in (2) of FIG. Similarly, when the transparency of the first element group 121 is the first threshold and the transparency of the second element group 151 is the third threshold, the first element group 121 presents the first image, the second element group 151 presents the third image, and the first and third images are superimposed to form the second luminescent image. Thus, more luminescent images can be presented.

[0063] Of course, the light emitting assembly 100 provided in the embodiments of the present application is not limited to including one or two light adjusting layers, and may further include multiple light adjusting layers. For example, the light emitting assembly 100 may further include a third light adjusting layer, a fourth light adjusting layer, ..., and an nth light adjusting layer. The specific implementation principles are the same as those described above. Examples will not be listed one by one.

[0064] In some embodiments, a more accurate light-emitting image is obtained to meet user requirements for the light-emitting image. The light-emitting assembly 100 provided in this embodiment of the present application may further include a light-guiding structure 16. As shown in (2) of FIG. 5, (2) of FIG. 6, (2) of FIG. 7, and (2) of FIG. 9, the light-guiding structure 16 is disposed in the first light-adjusting layer 12. Of course, if the light-emitting assembly 100 has multiple light-adjusting layers, the light-guiding structure 16 may be disposed in each light-adjusting layer. The light-guiding structure 16 and the light-adjusting layer may be the same layer, or the light-guiding structure 16 and the light-adjusting layer may be two separate layers. The light-guiding structure 16 is configured to transmit light emitted by the first light source 14 to at least one element in the element group. Specifically, the light-guiding structure 16 may include multiple optical fibers. The multiple fibers are disposed in the light-adjusting layer and distributed among the elements in the element group. For example, multiple optical fibers are disposed in the first light adjustment layer 12 and distributed among the first elements in the first element group 121. Preferably, multiple elements in the element group correspond one-to-one to multiple optical fibers. For example, multiple first elements in the first element group 121 correspond one-to-one to multiple optical fibers. When each element corresponds to one optical fiber, the illumination of each element can be precisely controlled, thereby generating more light-emitting images and improving the accuracy of the light-emitting images. In addition, because local elements can be precisely illuminated, the light-emitting assembly 100 can emit light locally.

[0065] Of course, the light emitting assembly may alternatively be determined in other combination forms of the aforementioned examples, and the embodiments of the present application do not list the examples one by one.

[0066] Based on the structure of the light emitting assembly in the above embodiment, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for controlling the light emitting assembly. The method for controlling the light emitting assembly is applicable to the electronic devices mentioned in the embodiments of the present application. Figure 10 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the electronic device according to an embodiment of the present application. The electronic device may be a product that uses the light emitting assembly, such as a vehicle, an automatic glass curtain, an automatic glass door, etc. In this embodiment, an example in which the electronic device is a vehicle will be described.

[0067] 10 , electronic device 1000 may include light emitting assembly 100, one or more processors 110, and one or more memories 120. Light emitting assembly 100 and memory 120 are coupled to processor 110. Memory 120 is configured to store a computer program product. The computer program product includes computer instructions. When processor 110 reads the computer instructions from the memory, electronic device 1000 is enabled to perform the following operations:

[0068] 11A is a schematic flowchart of a method for controlling a light emitting assembly according to an embodiment of the present application. The method may include:

[0069] S110: The electronic device acquires a user's operation 1 (for example, a first operation).

[0070] Operation 1 (first operation) is used to indicate the first light source that emits light. In other words, the first operation is used to drive the first light source of the light emitting circuit to emit light.

[0071] The operation 1 may include a first gesture operation. For example, the first gesture operation may include a clapping operation, a finger snap operation, a hand raising operation, etc. For example, the first operation is a finger snap operation. When a user performs a finger snap action in the vehicle, the vehicle receives the user's finger snap operation. Alternatively, the first operation may be an operation performed by the user on a large cockpit screen. Of course, the first operation may further represent the user's position. For example, when the user sits in a seat in the vehicle, the vehicle receives an operation that the user has sat in the seat.

[0072] In certain implementations, the one or more sensors may include a customer monitor system (CMS), which is configured to monitor a gesture state of a passenger. The one or more sensors may also include a driver monitor system (DMS), which is configured to monitor a gesture state of a passenger. The one or more sensors may further include a large cockpit screen. The large cockpit screen is used to detect an operation performed by a user on the large screen, and the operation may change the state of the light-emitting assembly.

[0073] S111: In response to operation 1, the electronic device adjusts the transparency of at least one first element in a first element group in a first light-modulating layer of the light-emitting assembly.

[0074] The light-emitting assembly may include a stacked first light-transmitting layer and a second light-transmitting layer. A first light adjustment layer is disposed between the first light-transmitting layer and the second light-transmitting layer. A first element group is disposed on the first light adjustment layer. The first element group includes at least one first element, and the transparency of the at least one first element is adjustable. The light-emitting assembly may further include a first light source, the first light source being located on a side of the first light adjustment layer. The at least one first element can emit light emitted by the first light source to the outside of the second light-transmitting layer, away from the first light adjustment layer. For a specific description of the light-emitting assembly, please refer to the above-mentioned embodiment. Details will not be described again in this specification.

[0075] In certain implementations, the material of the first element in the first element group can be PDLC, EC, or SPD, and the electronic device can adjust the transparency of the first element by adjusting the voltage of the first element in the first element group.

[0076] The transparency adjustment is performed on the first element in the first element group as a whole, and the electronic device adjusts the voltage on the first element group to adjust the transparency of the first element group, i.e., the transparency of the first element in the first element group. The transparency of the first element in the first element group is adjusted independently, and the electronic device adjusts the voltage on the first element in the first element group to adjust the transparency of that element.

[0077] The first elements in the first element group are arranged as follows: the first elements in the first element group are arranged in a preset image on the first light adjustment layer, or the first elements in the first element group are arranged in an array on the first light adjustment layer. Specifically, when the transparency of the first elements in the first element group is adjusted independently, the first elements in the first element group are arranged in an array on the first light adjustment layer.

[0078] S112: The electronic device controls the first light source of the light emitting assembly to emit light.

[0079] Specifically, the electronic device controls the light emitted by the first light source of the light emitting assembly to be irradiated onto at least one first element.

[0080] The at least one first element is configured to emit light outside the second light transmissive layer of the light emitting assembly, away from the first light conditioning layer, to present different light emitting images.

[0081] For example, assume that the transparency value ranges from 0 to 100. A transparency of 0 indicates opaqueness. A transparency of 100 indicates complete transparency. In this case, the first threshold value may be any value less than 60. Therefore, when the first transparency value of at least one first element reaches the first threshold value, it can be understood that the first element is in an incompletely transparent state.

[0082] The electronic device controls the light emitted by the first light source to be irradiated onto at least one first element, the at least one first element being in an incompletely transparent state, and the at least one first element reflects or refracts the light from the first light source to form a plurality of different luminous images.

[0083] For example, the electronic device is a vehicle 1. As shown in FIG. 12 , a sunroof 2 of the vehicle 1 is a light-emitting assembly provided in an embodiment of the present application. When the transparency of a first element in a first element group reaches a first threshold, a processor in the vehicle 1 controls the light emitted by the first light source to be irradiated onto all first elements in the first element group in the first light adjustment layer of the light-emitting assembly, and the first elements in the first element group refract or reflect the light emitted by the first light source and emit the light toward the outside of the second light-transmitting layer of the light-emitting assembly, away from the first light adjustment layer, thereby forming the light-emitting image shown in FIG. 12 . When the transparency of at least one first element in the first element group reaches a first threshold, the processor in the vehicle 1 controls the light emitted by the first light source to be irradiated onto the at least one first element, and the at least one first element refracts or reflects the light emitted by the first light source and emits the light toward the outside of the second light-transmitting layer of the light-emitting assembly, away from the first light adjustment layer, thereby forming the light-emitting image shown in FIG. 13 .

[0084] In some embodiments, to present more luminescent images, the light emitting assembly provided in this embodiment of the present application may further include a second light adjusting layer. The second light adjusting layer is disposed between the first light transmitting layer and the second light transmitting layer, and the second element group is disposed on the second light adjusting layer, the second element group including at least one second element, and the transparency of the at least one second element is adjustable. For a description of the second light adjusting layer, please refer to the description of the first light adjusting layer in the previous embodiment. Details will not be described again herein. The light emitting assembly may further include a second light source, which is located on a side of the second light adjusting layer. The at least one second element can emit light emitted by the second light source to the outside of the second light transmitting layer, away from the second light adjusting layer. For a related description of the second light source in this specification, please refer to the previous description of the first light source. Details will not be described again herein.

[0085] Specifically, steps S110 to S112 may be implemented as follows: when the electronic device receives a first operation from a user, the electronic device adjusts the transparency of at least one first element in a first element group in a first light adjustment layer of the light-emitting assembly in response to the first operation, and controls a first light source of the light-emitting assembly to emit light. For example, operation 1 is a finger snap operation, and the electronic device is a vehicle. When a user performs a finger snap action in the vehicle, the vehicle receives the user's finger snap operation. In response to this operation, the vehicle drives the light adjustment layer to adjust the transparency and drives the first light source to emit light. As a result, the light emitted by the first light source is irradiated onto the light adjustment layer in the sunroof glass of the vehicle, and the light adjustment layer reflects or refracts the light emitted by the first light source in the vehicle to illuminate the space within the vehicle.

[0086] In certain implementations, the one or more processors include a cockpit domain controller (CDC). The cockpit domain controller is configured to collect information about the cockpit domain subsystems or associated sensors and, after logical processing of the information, forward corresponding control information to the light emitting assembly driver. The light emitting assembly driver is configured to receive trigger signals from the CDC, convert analog signals, drive the light adjustment layer to adjust transparency, and drive the first light source (e.g., LED) to separately adjust light emission brightness and light emission color or light emission position.

[0087] 11B is a schematic flowchart of a method for controlling a light emitting assembly according to an embodiment of the present application. The method includes:

[0088] S113: The user's operation 2 (for example, the fourth operation) is acquired.

[0089] Operation 2 (fourth operation) may include a gesture operation, a button operation, a voice operation, etc. For example, the gesture operation may include a finger snap operation, a finger movement operation, etc. This is not particularly limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0090] Of course, operation 2 may alternatively be the same as operation 1. The details will not be described again here.

[0091] S114: In response to operation 2, the electronic device adjusts the transparency of at least one second element in the second element group in the second light-modulating layer of the light-emitting assembly.

[0092] Specifically, the electronic device adjusts the transparency of at least one second element. For specific implementations, please refer to the specific implementations of S111. The details will not be described again in this specification.

[0093] S115: The electronic device controls the second light source of the light emitting assembly to emit light.

[0094] Specifically, the electronic device controls the light emitted by the second light source of the light emitting assembly to illuminate at least one second element.

[0095] In certain implementations, the material of the second element in the second element group can be PDLC, EC, or SPD, and the electronic device can adjust the transparency of the second element by adjusting the voltage of the second element in the second element group.

[0096] The transparency adjustment is performed on the second elements in the second element group as a whole, and the electronic device adjusts the voltage of the second element group to adjust the transparency of the second element group, i.e., the transparency of the second elements in the second element group. The transparency of the second elements in the second element group is adjusted independently, and the electronic device adjusts the voltage of the second elements in the second element group to adjust the transparency of the elements.

[0097] When the first transparency of the at least one first element reaches a second threshold and the second transparency of the at least one second element reaches a third threshold, the electronic device controls the light emitted by the first light source to still be irradiated onto at least one second element in the second element group, and reflects or refracts the light by using a combination of the at least one first element and the at least one second element to present a different luminous image.

[0098] For example, assume that the transparency value ranges from 0 to 100. A transparency of 0 indicates opaqueness. A transparency of 100 indicates complete transparency. In this case, the second threshold may be any value less than 50. Therefore, when the second transparency of at least one second element reaches the second threshold, it can be understood that the second element is in an incompletely transparent state.

[0099] The electronic device controls the light emitted by the first light source to be irradiated onto at least one first element and at least one second element, wherein the at least one first element and the at least one second element are in an incompletely transparent state, and the at least one first element and the at least one second element reflect or refract the light from the first light source to form a plurality of different luminous images.

[0100] For example, assume that a first element in a first element group is arranged in a first preset image and a second element in a second element group is arranged in a second preset image, when a first transparency of at least one first element in the first element group is a first threshold and a second transparency of at least one second element in the second element group is a second threshold, the electronic device controls the light emitted by the first light source to be irradiated onto the at least one first element and the at least one second element, so that the at least one first element presents a first image and the at least one second element presents a second image, and the first image and the second image are superimposed to form a first light-emitting image. Similarly, when the first transparency of at least one first element in the first element group is equal to the first threshold value and the second transparency of at least one second element in the second element group is equal to the third threshold value, the electronic device controls the light emitted by the first light source to be irradiated onto the at least one first element and the at least one second element, so that the at least one first element presents a first image and the at least one second element presents a third image, and the first image and the third image are superimposed to form a second luminescent image, thereby presenting more luminescent images.

[0101] In some embodiments, the light emitting assembly provided in this embodiment of the present application may further include a light emitting circuit. The light emitting circuit is disposed on the light emitting assembly, and the light emitting circuit is configured to control the first light source to emit light. For details, please refer to the related descriptions in the previous embodiments. The details will not be described again in this specification.

[0102] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 10, the electronic device 1000 further includes one or more sensors 130, and the sensors 130 are coupled to the processor 110. FIG. 11C is a schematic flowchart of a method for controlling a light-emitting assembly according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 11C, in order to achieve the purpose of energy saving, some spaces may be illuminated based on user requirements. S112 may specifically be:

[0103] S1120: The electronic device acquires the user's operation 3 (for example, the second operation).

[0104] Operation 3 may be the same as operation 1. The details will not be described again in this specification.

[0105] S1121: In response to operation 3, the electronic device determines a first position on the light-emitting assembly and corresponding to the user or a first body part of the user.

[0106] The first body part of the user may be the user's hand, leg, body, etc.

[0107] The previous example will be used again. When a user performs a finger snap action in the vehicle, the vehicle receives the user's finger snap operation. Additionally, the vehicle determines the spatial position of the user's finger. Based on the spatial position and a predetermined correspondence between the spatial position and each element in the sunroof glass, the vehicle determines a first position on the sunroof glass corresponding to the user's finger and multiple elements within the first position. Specifically, upon detecting the finger snap action, the CMS detects the position of the user's finger in real time, identifies the spatial coordinates (X, Y, Z) of the finger, and directly maps the spatial coordinates to the coordinates (x, y) of multiple elements on the sunroof glass surface of the vehicle.

[0108] S1122: The electronic device drives the first light source based on the first position to emit light to illuminate the plurality of elements located at the first position.

[0109] The previous example is still used. After the first position of the sunroof glass corresponding to the user's finger and the plurality of elements at the first position are determined, the vehicle, in response to this operation, drives the first light source to emit light to be irradiated onto the plurality of elements. In this way, the plurality of elements reflect or refract the light emitted by the first light source in the vehicle to illuminate the space in the vehicle where the user or the user's finger is located, thereby illuminating the local space.

[0110] Similarly, as the user's first body part moves, the elements that need to be illuminated within the sunroof glass change along with the spatial position of the first body part. For example, the CMS continues to detect the image state of the finger. If the brightness increases, it indicates successful illumination. If the brightness does not increase or the finger moves, the CMS continues to transfer the finger's current spatial coordinates and converts them into plane coordinates on the vehicle's sunroof glass. In this way, the illuminated space within the vehicle moves along with the movement of the user's first body part, thereby enabling real-time optical tracking of the movement of the first body part. Accurate optical tracking can be performed within a certain range for actions such as reading, using a mobile phone, or retrieving items from the vehicle at night, thereby achieving an optical tracking effect.

[0111] In order to enrich the brightness and color of the luminescent image, Figure 11D is a schematic flowchart of a method for controlling a luminescent assembly according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 11D, S112 can be more specifically as follows:

[0112] S112 may further be:

[0113] S1123: The electronic device receives a fourth operation (for example, a third operation) from the user.

[0114] Operation 4 is used to indicate the brightness and wavelength of the light emitted by the first light source. In other words, operation 4 is used to drive the brightness and wavelength of the light emitted by the first light source of the lighting circuit.

[0115] Operation 4 may include a second gesture operation. For example, the second gesture operation may include a rotation operation, a slide operation, etc. For example, the second operation is a rotation operation. When a user holds out their thumb inside the vehicle and rotates it clockwise, the vehicle receives this operation from the user. For example, the second operation is a slide operation. When a user holds out their index finger inside the vehicle and slides the index finger from the bottom to the top of the vehicle, the vehicle receives this operation from the user.

[0116] S1124: In response to operation 4, the electronic device adjusts the brightness and wavelength of the light emitted by the first light source.

[0117] The previous example will still be used. When a user holds out their thumb inside the vehicle and rotates it clockwise (or counterclockwise), the vehicle receives this user's operation. In response to this operation, the vehicle increases (or decreases) the brightness of the light emitted by the first light source, and stops adjusting the brightness of the light after the thumb action is released. When a user extends their index finger inside the vehicle and slides the index finger from below the vehicle to above the vehicle (or from above the vehicle to below the vehicle), the vehicle receives this user's operation. In response to this operation, the vehicle lengthens (or shortens) the wavelength of the light emitted by the first light source. Naturally, when a user holds out their thumb inside the vehicle and rotates their thumb clockwise (or counterclockwise), the vehicle receives this user's operation. In response to this operation, the vehicle lengthens (or shortens) the wavelength of the light emitted by the first light source. When a user extends their index finger inside the vehicle and slides the index finger from below the vehicle to above the vehicle (or from above the vehicle to below the vehicle), the vehicle receives this user's operation. In response to this operation, the vehicle increases (or decreases) the brightness of the light emitted by the first light source, which may be specifically set based on the actual situation, and is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0118] In some embodiments, the first light source may include a plurality of LED lights. The plurality of LED lights are disposed on at least one end side of the light-emitting assembly. S1124 may specifically be: in response to operation 4, the electronic device adjusts the brightness and wavelength of light emitted by at least one LED light of the plurality of LED lights.

[0119] In order to make the luminous image more occasional, Fig. 11E is a schematic flowchart of a method for controlling a luminous assembly according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Fig. 11E, S112 can be more specifically as follows:

[0120] S1125: The electronic device collects first information.

[0121] The first information represents information about the environment and / or the electronic device. The environment can be weather, location, time, etc. The information about the electronic device can be information that changes information about the electronic device. For example, the electronic device can be a vehicle, and the information about the electronic device can include the number of people in the vehicle, the age group of the people, etc.

[0122] In certain implementations, the one or more sensors may include a seat sensor and / or a rain light sensor configured to sense whether a seat is vacant. The rain light sensor is configured to sense environmental conditions outside the vehicle, such as sunlight intensity and rainfall.

[0123] S1126: The electronic device drives the first light source to emit light based on the first information.

[0124] In a specific implementation, the one or more processors include a body control module (BCM). The body control module is configured to collect sensor information (i.e., first information) of relevant body parts and, after logical processing of the information, forward corresponding control information to the light emitting assembly driver. The light emitting assembly driver is configured to receive trigger signals from the CDC and the BCM, convert analog signals, drive the light adjustment layer to adjust transparency, and drive the first light source (e.g., LED) to separately adjust light emission brightness and light emission color or light emission position. For example, the vehicle obtains an environmental condition (e.g., rainy weather) based on the BCM and forwards corresponding control information to the light emitting assembly driver. The light emitting assembly driver separately adjusts transparency, light emission brightness, light emission color, or light emission position based on the control information, and the vehicle's sunroof glass can exhibit a raindrop rippling effect.
