Background Art

[0003] With the rapid development of electronic devices, most electronic devices have light-emitting glass, for example, the sunroof glass of a vehicle. The sunroof glass is a kind of light-emitting glass. Existing light-emitting glass enables an electronic device to provide various visual effects such as a starry sky effect, a blue sky effect, or a natural landscape effect. In existing methods for manufacturing the sunroof glass of a vehicle, usually, a laser engraving texture is formed inside the glass by a laser engraving method, illumination is applied from the side of the glass, and light is retained in the laser engraving texture by using the light guiding mechanism of the glass, thereby forming a light-emitting image on the glass. However, the laser engraving texture formed inside the glass is monotonous, and the visual effect of the sunroof glass of the vehicle becomes monotonous.

Summary of the Invention

[0004] Embodiments of this application provide a method for controlling a light emitting assembly, a light emitting assembly, and an electronic device, which form a plurality of different light-emitting images and realize a plurality of 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-tuning layer and a first light source. The first light-tuning layer is disposed between the first light-transmitting layer and the second light-transmitting layer, and a first group of elements is disposed on the first group of elements, the first group of elements includes at least one first element, the transparency of which at least one first element is adjustable. The first light source is located on the side of the first light-tuning layer. 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 and away from the first light-tuning layer. In this embodiment of the present application, the transparency of at least one first element in the first group of elements can be adjusted, and light can be shone on these first elements to present a plurality of light-emitting images.

[0006] Transparency adjustment may be performed on multiple first elements as a whole, or the transparency of multiple first elements may be adjusted independently.

[0007] Multiple first elements may be arranged in the first light-adjusting layer to form a preset image, such as a triangle or a pentagonal star. Alternatively, the multiple first elements may be arranged in an array in the first light-adjusting layer.

[0008] In some specific implementations, the light-emitting assembly may further include a second light-adjusting layer disposed between a first light-transmitting layer and a second light-transmitting layer, wherein a group of second elements is disposed on the second light-adjusting layer, and the group of second elements includes at least one second element, the transparency of which at least one second element is adjustable; and a second light source, the second light source being located on the side of the second light-adjusting layer. At least one second element is capable of emitting light emitted by the second light source to the outside of the second light-transmitting layer and away from the second light-adjusting layer.

[0009] In this embodiment of the present application, the transparency of the first element in the first element group is adjusted, and when the first light source illuminates the first element, a first image is presented under the action of the first element. In addition, the transparency of the second element in the second element group is adjusted, and when the second light source illuminates the second element, a second image is presented under the action of the second element. The first image and the second image are superimposed to present an illuminated 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 illuminated image can be presented, and user requirements can be better met.

[0010] In a specific implementation, the transparency of the first elements within the first element group can be adjusted independently, and the first elements within the first element group are arranged in an array in the first light adjustment layer. When the transparency of the first elements within the first element group changes independently, the light emitted by the first light source illuminates different first elements, presenting different emission images. In this way, more emission images can be presented, and the presented emission images can better meet user requirements, thereby enriching the user's visual experience.

The light-emitting assembly controls at least one of the LED lights to emit light. ni kamo The constructed light-emitting circuit may further be included.

[0012] In certain implementations, the light-emitting circuit is further configured to control the brightness and wavelength of the light emitted by at least one LED light. In this embodiment of the present application, since the brightness and wavelength of the light emitted by at least one LED light are controlled, the brightness and color of the emitted light are adjustable. Therefore, it is possible to meet the user's requirements for the emitted image and obtain a richer and more diverse emitted image.

[0014] In a specific implementation, the light guide structure is arranged in a first light adjustment layer and includes multiple optical fibers dispersed among the first elements within a first element group, with each of the multiple first elements corresponding one-to-one with a single optical fiber. When each element corresponds to one optical fiber, the illumination of each element can be precisely controlled, allowing for the generation of more emission images and improving the accuracy of the emission images. In addition, because local elements can be precisely illuminated, the light-emitting assembly can emit light locally.

The elements emit light from the first light source into the space where the user or a first body part of the user is located, thereby illuminating the local space.

The method further includes the steps of obtaining a fourth operation from the user; adjusting the transparency of at least one second element in the group of second elements in the second light-adjusting layer of the light-emitting assembly in response to the fourth operation; and controlling the second light source of the light-emitting assembly to emit light.

Therefore, features limited 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.

[0046] In addition, in the embodiments of this application, the words “example” or “for example” are used to indicate that an example, illustration, or explanation is being given. Any embodiment or design scheme described as “example” or “for example” in the embodiments of this application should not be described as having more advantages than another embodiment or design scheme. Specifically, the use of words such as “example” or “for example” is intended to present the relevant concepts in a particular way.

[0047] Currently, light-emitting assemblies can present luminous images to satisfy the user's visual experience. The specific implementation principle is as follows: Typically, a laser-engraved texture, as shown in Figure 1, is formed inside the glass using a laser engraving method. Light is then shone from the side of the glass, and the light guide mechanism of the glass is used to retain light in the laser-engraved texture, thereby forming a luminous image on the glass. However, the laser-engraved texture formed inside the glass is monotonous, resulting in a monotonous 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 Figure 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 positioned 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 glass material or of another transparent material such as acrylic. This is not particularly limited in the embodiments of the present application. The first light-adjusting layer 12 may be understood to be completely transparent. A first element group 121 is arranged on the first light-adjusting layer 12, and the first element group 121 may include at least one first element, the transparency of at least one first element being adjustable. Thus, the transparency at the position of 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 the side of the first light-adjusting layer. Light emitted by the first light source 14 irradiates at least one first element. 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 and 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, as shown in Figure 3, when light emitted by the first light source 14 is emitted onto the first element, the light emitted by the first light source 14 passes through the first element and is emitted to the outside of the first light transmission layer and away from the first light adjustment layer. If at least one first element in the first element group is not completely transparent, as shown in Figure 4, when light emitted by the first light source 14 is emitted onto at least one first element, 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 and away from the first light adjustment layer, thereby presenting an emitted image.

[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 illuminates 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 and away from the first light adjustment layer, forming a first emission image, where n is a positive integer less than A and greater than 1. For example, as shown in Figure 5(1), the first elements within the first element group 121 are arranged in a hexagonal star pattern. If the transparency of all first elements is at the first threshold, that is, if not all first elements are completely transparent, then when light emitted by the first light source 14 is emitted to all first elements, these first elements emit the light emitted by the first light source 14 to the outside of the second light transmission layer and away from the first light adjustment layer, presenting a hexagonal star emission image as shown in Figure 5(2).

[0051] For example, the first element group contains A first elements, where A is a positive integer greater than 2. When light emitted by the first light source 14 irradiates m first elements, the transparency of the m first elements is the 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 and away from the first light adjustment layer, forming a second reflection image, where m is a positive integer less than A and greater than 1, and the second threshold is different from the first threshold. For example, as shown in Figure 6(1), the first elements in the first element group 121 are arranged in the shape of a hexagonal star image. Here, we assume that the hexagonal star image is divided into two parts. The first part is the six corners of the hexagonal star image, and the second part is the part of the hexagonal star image other than the six corners. If the first element corresponding to the first part is completely transparent, and the transparency of the first element corresponding to the second part is the second threshold, that is, the first element is not completely transparent, then when light emitted by the first light source 14 is emitted to the first element corresponding to the second part, these first elements emit the light emitted by the first light source 14 to the outside of the second light transmission layer and away from the first light adjustment layer, presenting the hexagonal light emission image shown in Figure 6 (2).

[0052] In conclusion, in one embodiment of this application, the transparency of at least one first element within a first element group is adjusted, and light is shone onto these first elements, thereby presenting multiple light-emitting images.

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

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

[0055] For example, the transparency of the first elements within a group of first elements can be adjusted independently. As shown in Figure 7(1), the first elements of the first element group 121 are arranged in an array in the first light adjustment layer 12. If not all first elements are completely transparent, when light emitted by the first light source 14 is emitted to all first elements, these first elements emit the light emitted by the first light source 14 to the outside of the second light transmission layer and away from the first light adjustment layer, presenting the emission image shown in Figure 7(2). 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 and away from the first light adjustment layer, presenting different emission images. In this way, when the transparency of each first element in the first element group 121 changes independently, the light emitted by the first light source 14 is irradiated onto different first elements, presenting different emission images. Therefore, more luminous images can be presented, and the presented luminous images can better meet user requirements, thereby enriching the user's visual experience.

[0056] In certain implementations, the transparency of a first element within a group of first elements is adjusted independently. In this case, the transparency of these first elements may be adjusted synchronously or asynchronously. Synchronous transparency adjustment can be understood as the pace at which the transparency of multiple first elements is adjusted being consistent. For example, at the same point in time, the adjusted transparency of multiple first elements is the same. Asynchronous transparency adjustment can be understood as the pace at which the transparency of multiple first elements is adjusted being inconsistent. For example, at the same point in time, the transparency of the first part of a first element within a group of first elements is a first value, the transparency of the second part of a first element within a group of first elements is a second value, the second value is different from the first value, and the second part of the first element is different from the first part of the first element.

[0057] In embodiments of this application, the first elements in the first element group 121 may be arranged in the first light adjustment layer 12 in different ways. 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 the first light adjustment layer 12 in the form of a preset image, such as a triangle, a five-pointed star, a hexagon, or a text image. Naturally, 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 in the first light adjustment layer 12. For example, the first elements in the first element group 121 may be uniformly distributed in the first light adjustment layer 12 based on a preset interval.

[0058] It should be noted that the shapes of the first elements within the first element group 121 may be the same or different. In addition, the first elements may have any shape. This is not particularly limited in the embodiments of this 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 an emitting state and the first element in the first element group is completely transparent, the light-emitting assembly can be used as ordinary glass. When the first light source 14 is in an emitting state and the first element in the first element group is incompletely transparent, the light-emitting assembly can be used as light-shielding glass. When the first light source 14 is in a non-emitting state and the first element in the first element group is completely transparent, the light-emitting assembly can be used as ordinary glass. When the first light source 14 is in a non-emitting state and the first element in the first element group is incompletely transparent, the light-emitting assembly can present a different luminescent image as a light-emitting assembly. The incomplete transparency 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 application may further include a light-emitting circuit to control the first light source 14 to emit light. The light-emitting circuit is located on the light-emitting assembly 100 and 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 located on at least one end side of the light-emitting assembly 100. For example, the plurality of LED lights are located on the first end side of the first light-adjusting layer 12. Alternatively, the plurality of LED lights are located on the first end side and the second end side of the first light-adjusting layer 12, with the first end side and the second end side being opposite each other. Alternatively, the plurality of LED lights are located on the first end side of the first light-adjusting layer 12 and the first end side of the second light-adjusting layer 15, with 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, in order to present different luminescent images, the light-emitting circuit is further configured to control at least one of the multiple LED lights to emit light. In order to present luminescent images having different brightness and different colors, the light-emitting circuit is further configured to control the brightness and wavelength of the light emitted by at least one LED light.

[0061] In some embodiments, to present more light emission images, Figure 8 is a schematic diagram of the structure of another light emission assembly 100 according to one embodiment of the present application. The light emission assembly 100 may further include a second light-modulating layer 15 disposed between a first light-transmitting layer 11 and a second light-transmitting layer 13. A second element group 151 is disposed in the second light-modulating layer 15, and the second element group 151 includes at least one second element, the transparency of which at least one second element is adjustable. For a relevant description of the second element group 151 and the second element within the second element group 151 as described herein, see the preceding description of the first element group 121 and the first element within the first element group 121. Further details are again not described herein. The light emission assembly 100 may further include a second light source 17, which is located on the side of the second light-modulating layer 15. At least one second element may emit light emitted by the second light source 17 to the outside of the second light transmission layer 13 and away from the second light adjustment layer 15. For a relevant description of the second light source 17 in this specification, please refer to the preceding description of the first light source 14. Further details are not provided herein.

[0062] In a specific implementation, transparency adjustment is performed on the first element in the first element group 121 as a whole, and transparency adjustment is performed on the second element in the second element group 151 as a whole. In this case, as shown in Figure 9(1), it is assumed that the first element in the first element group 121 is placed in the first preset image, and the second element in the second element group 151 is placed in the second preset image. If the transparency of the first element in the first element group 121 is the first threshold, and the transparency of the second element in the second element group 151 is the second threshold, light emitted by the first light source 14 is emitted to the first element in the first element group 121 to present the first image under the action of the first element, and light emitted by the second light source 17 is emitted to the second element in the second element group 151 to present the second image under the action of the second element, and the first image and the second image are superimposed to form the first emission image shown in Figure 9(2). Similarly, if 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 a second emission image. Therefore, more emission images can be presented.

[0063] Naturally, the light-emitting assembly 100 provided in the embodiments of this application is not limited to including one or two light-tuning layers, but may further include a plurality of light-tuning layers. For example, the light-emitting assembly 100 may further include a third light-tuning layer, a fourth light-tuning layer, ..., and an nth light-tuning layer. The specific implementation principles are the same as described above. Examples are not listed one by one.

[0064] In some embodiments, more accurate emission images are obtained to meet user requirements for emission images. The emission assembly 100 provided in this embodiment of the present application may further include a light guide structure 16. As shown in Figures 5(2), 6(2), 7(2), and 9(2), the light guide structure 16 is located in the first light tuning layer 12. Naturally, if the emission assembly 100 has multiple light tuning layers, the light guide structure 16 may be located in each light tuning layer. The light guide structure 16 and the light tuning layer may be the same layer, or they may be two layers independent of each other. The light guide 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 guide structure 16 may include multiple optical fibers. The multiple fibers are located in the light tuning layer and distributed among the elements in the element group. For example, multiple optical fibers are arranged in the first optical 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 with multiple optical fibers. For example, multiple first elements in the first element group 121 correspond one-to-one with multiple optical fibers. When each element corresponds to one optical fiber, the illumination of each element can be precisely controlled, so more emission images can be generated and the accuracy of the emission images can be improved. In addition, since local elements can be precisely illuminated, the light-emitting assembly 100 can emit light locally.

[0065] Naturally, the light-emitting assembly may be determined by alternative combinations of the examples described above. Examples are not listed one by one in the embodiments of this application.

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

[0067] As shown in Figure 10, the electronic device 1000 may include a light-emitting assembly 100, one or more processors 110, and one or more memories 120. The light-emitting assembly 100 and the memories 120 are coupled to the processor 110. The memories 120 are configured to store computer program products. The computer program products include computer instructions. When the processor 110 reads computer instructions from the memory, the electronic device 1000 becomes capable of performing the following operations.

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

[0069] S110: The electronic device acquires user operation 1 (e.g., first operation).

[0070] Operation 1 (the 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] Operation 1 may include a first gesture operation. For example, the first gesture operation may include clapping, snapping fingers, or raising hands. For example, the first operation may be a finger snapping action. When a user performs a finger snapping action inside the vehicle, the vehicle receives the user's finger snapping operation. Alternatively, the first operation may be an operation performed by the user on a large cockpit screen. Naturally, the first operation may further represent the user's location. For example, when a user sits in a seat inside the vehicle, the vehicle receives an operation indicating that the user is seated.

[0072] In certain implementations, one or more sensors may include a customer monitor system (CMS), configured to monitor passenger gestures. One or more sensors may also include a driver monitor system (DMS), configured to monitor passenger gestures. One or more sensors may further include a large cockpit screen. The large cockpit screen is used to detect user actions on the screen, which may change the state of an illuminated assembly.

[0073] S111: In response to operation 1, the electronic device adjusts the transparency of at least one first element in the first element group in the first light adjustment 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-tuning layer is positioned between the first and second light-transmitting layers, and a group of first elements is positioned on the first light-tuning layer, the group of first elements including at least one first element, the transparency of which is adjustable. The light-emitting assembly may further include a first light source, the first light source located on the side of the first light-tuning layer. 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 and away from the first light-tuning layer. For a specific description of the light-emitting assembly, please refer to the embodiments described above. Further details are not described herein.

[0075] In certain implementation configurations, the material of the first element within the first element group may be PDLC, EC, or SPD. The electronic device can adjust the transparency of the first element by adjusting the voltage of the first element within the first element group.

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

[0077] The first element within the first element group is arranged as follows: The first element within the first element group is placed in a preset image in the first light adjustment layer, or the first element within the first element group is arranged in an array in the first light adjustment layer. Specifically, if the transparency of the first element within the first element group is adjusted independently, the first element within the first element group is arranged in an array in 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 irradiate at least one first element.

[0080] At least one first element is configured to emit light from the outside of the second light transmission layer of the light-emitting assembly, away from the first light-modulating layer, to present a different light-emitting image.

[0081] For example, let's assume the transparency value range is 0 to 100. Transparency of 0 indicates opacity. Transparency of 100 indicates complete transparency. In this case, the first threshold can be any value less than 60. Therefore, the first transparency of at least one first element reaching the first threshold can be understood as the first element being in an incompletely transparent state.

[0082] The electronic device controls the light emitted from a first light source to irradiate 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 light emission images.

[0083] For example, the electronic device is a vehicle 1. As shown in Figure 12, the sunroof 2 of the vehicle 1 is a light-emitting assembly provided in the embodiments of this 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 a first light source to illuminate all first elements in the first element group in a first light-adjusting layer of the light-emitting assembly. The first elements in the first element group refract or reflect the light emitted by the first light source, emitting light to the outside of the second light-transmitting layer of the light-emitting assembly, away from the first light-adjusting layer, to form the light-emitting image shown in Figure 12. When the transparency of at least one first element in the first element group reaches a first threshold, a processor in the vehicle 1 controls the light emitted by the first light source to illuminate at least one first element. The at least one first element refracts or reflects the light emitted by the first light source, emitting light to the outside of the second light-transmitting layer of the light-emitting assembly, away from the first light-adjusting layer, to form the light-emitting image shown in Figure 13.

[0084] In some embodiments, to present more emission images, the light-emitting assembly provided in this embodiment of the present application may further include a second light-modulating layer. The second light-modulating layer is positioned between the first light-transmitting layer and the second light-transmitting layer, and a group of second elements is positioned on the second light-modulating layer, the group of second elements including at least one second element, the transparency of which is adjustable. For a description of the second light-modulating layer, see the description of the first light-modulating layer in the embodiments described above. Further details are again not described herein. The light-emitting assembly may further include a second light source, the second light source located on the side of the second light-modulating layer. At least one second element is capable of emitting light emitted by the second light source to the outside of the second light-transmitting layer and away from the second light-modulating layer. For a relevant description of the second light source in this specification, see the description of the first light source described above. Further details are again not described herein.

[0085] S110 to S112 can be specifically carried out as follows: When the electronic device receives a first operation from the user, the electronic device, in response to the first operation, adjusts the transparency of at least one first element in the first group of elements in the first light-adjusting layer of the light-emitting assembly and controls the 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 the user performs a finger snap action inside the vehicle, the vehicle receives the user's finger snap operation. In response to this operation, the vehicle drives the light-adjusting layer to adjust its transparency and drives the first light source to emit light. As a result, the light emitted by the first light source irradiates the light-adjusting layer inside the vehicle's sunroof glass, and the light-adjusting layer reflects or refracts the light emitted by the first light source inside the vehicle to illuminate the space inside the vehicle.

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

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

[0088] S113: Get user operation 2 (e.g., operation 4).

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

[0090] Naturally, operation 2 may alternatively be the same as operation 1. Further details are not provided herein.

[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 adjustment layer of the light-emitting assembly.

[0092] Specifically, the electronic device adjusts the transparency of at least one second element. For specific implementation details, please refer to the specific implementation details in S111. Further details are not described herein.

[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 irradiate at least one second element.

[0095] In certain implementation configurations, the material of the second element within the second element group may be PDLC, EC, or SPD. The electronic device can adjust the transparency of the second element by adjusting the voltage of the second element within the second element group.

[0096] Transparency adjustment is performed on the second element within the second element group as a whole, and the electronic device adjusts the transparency of the second element group, i.e., the transparency of the second element within the second element group, by adjusting the voltage of the second element within the second element group. The transparency of the second element within the second element group is adjusted independently, and the electronic device adjusts the transparency of the element by adjusting the voltage of the second element within the second element group.

[0097] When the first transparency of at least one first element reaches a second threshold and the second transparency of at least one second element reaches a third threshold, the electronic device controls the light emitted by the first light source to still illuminate at least one second element in the second element group, and presents different luminescent images by reflecting or refracting the light using a combination of at least one first element and at least one second element.

[0098] For example, let's assume the transparency value range is 0 to 100. Transparency of 0 indicates opacity. Transparency of 100 indicates complete transparency. In this case, the second threshold can be any value less than 50. Therefore, the second transparency of at least one second element reaching the second threshold can be understood as the second element being in an incompletely transparent state.

[0099] The electronic device controls the light emitted from a first light source to illuminate at least one first element and at least one second element, the at least one first element and at least one second element being in an incompletely transparent state, and the at least one first element and at least one second element reflect or refract the light from the first light source to form a plurality of different light emission images.

[0100] For example, suppose that the first element in the first element group is positioned in the first preset image, and the second element in the second element group is positioned in the second preset image. If the first transparency of at least one first element in the first element group is the first threshold, and the second transparency of at least one second element in the second element group is the second threshold, the electronic device controls the light emitted by the first light source to illuminate at least one first element and at least one second element, so that at least one first element presents a first image, 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, if the first transparency of at least one first element in the first element group is the first threshold, and the second transparency of at least one second element in the second element group is the third threshold, the electronic device controls the light emitted by the first light source to illuminate at least one first element and at least one second element, so that at least one first element presents a first image, at least one second element presents a third image, and the first and third images are superimposed to form a second emission image. Thus, more emission images can be presented.

[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 located on the light-emitting assembly and is configured to control the first light source to emit light. For further details, please refer to the relevant descriptions in the embodiments described above. Further details are again not described herein.

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

[0103] S1120: The electronic device acquires user operation 3 (e.g., second operation).

[0104] Operation 3 may be the same as Operation 1. Further details are not described herein.

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

[0106] The user's primary body part could be the user's hands, legs, or torso.

[0107] The aforementioned example is still used. When a user performs a finger snap action inside the vehicle, the vehicle receives the user's finger snap operation. In addition, the vehicle determines the spatial position of the user's finger. Based on the spatial position and a pre-defined 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 a 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 vehicle's sunroof glass surface.

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

[0109] The aforementioned example is still used. After the first position on the sunroof glass corresponding to the user's finger and the multiple elements at the first position are determined, in response to this operation, the vehicle drives the first light source to emit light so as to illuminate the multiple elements. In this way, the multiple 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 continuously detects the image state of the finger. Higher brightness indicates successful illumination. If the brightness does not increase, or if the finger moves, the CMS continues to transfer the finger's current spatial coordinates and converts these current spatial coordinates to the planar coordinates of 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, enabling real-time light tracking of the first body part's movement and allowing for accurate light tracking within a specific range for actions such as reading, using a mobile phone, or retrieving items in the vehicle at night, thereby achieving a light tracking effect.

[0111] To enhance the brightness and color of the emitted image, Figure 11D is a schematic flowchart of a method for controlling an emitted light assembly according to one embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 11D, S112 may more specifically be:

[0112] S112 could also be:

[0113] S1123: The electronic device receives user operation 4 (for example, operation 3).

[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 light-emitting circuit.

[0115] Operation 4 may include a second gesture operation. For example, a second gesture operation may include a rotation operation, a slide operation, etc. For example, the second operation is a rotation operation. If the user holds up their thumb inside the vehicle and rotates it clockwise, the vehicle will receive this operation from the user. For example, the second operation is a slide operation. If the user extends their index finger inside the vehicle and slides it from the bottom to the top of the vehicle, the vehicle will receive 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 aforementioned examples are still used. When a user raises their thumb inside the vehicle and rotates it clockwise (or counterclockwise), the vehicle receives this action from the user. In response to this action, the vehicle increases (or decreases) the brightness of the light emitted by the first light source, and after the thumb action is released, the brightness adjustment of the light ends. When a user extends their index finger inside the vehicle and slides it from the bottom up (or from the top down) of the vehicle, the vehicle receives this action from the user. In response to this action, the vehicle lengthens (or shortens) the wavelength of the light emitted by the first light source. Naturally, when a user raises their thumb inside the vehicle and rotates it clockwise (or counterclockwise), the vehicle receives this action from the user. In response to this action, 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 it from the bottom up (or from the top down) of the vehicle, the vehicle receives this action from the user. In response to this operation, the vehicle increases (or decreases) the brightness of the light emitted by the first light source. This can be specifically set based on actual circumstances. This is not particularly limited to the embodiments of this application.

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

[0119] To make the emission image more occasional, Figure 11E is a schematic flowchart of a method for controlling an emission assembly according to one embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 11E, S112 may more specifically be:

[0120] S1125: An electronic device collects the first piece of information.

[0121] The first piece of information represents information about the environment and / or electronic devices. The environment could be weather, location, time, etc. Information about electronic devices could be information that changes information about the electronic devices. For example, if the electronic device is a vehicle, the information about the electronic device could include the number of people in the vehicle, the age range of the people, etc.

[0122] In certain implementations, one or more sensors may include a seat sensor and / or a rain light sensor. The seat sensor is configured to sense whether a seat is open or closed. The rain light sensor is configured to sense external environmental conditions of the vehicle, such as the brightness of sunlight and the amount of rainfall.

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

[0124] In certain implementations, one or more processors include a body control module (BCM). The body control module is configured to collect sensor information (i.e., first information) from relevant body parts, and after logical processing of this information, transfer corresponding control information to a light emission assembly driver. The light emission assembly driver is configured to receive trigger signals from the CDC and BCM, convert analog signals, drive a light adjustment layer to adjust transparency, and drive a first light source (e.g., an LED) to separately adjust the luminescence and color or position. For example, a vehicle acquires environmental conditions (e.g., rain) based on the BCM and transfers corresponding control information to the light emission assembly driver. Based on the control information, the light emission assembly driver separately adjusts the transparency, luminescence, color, or position, and the vehicle's sunroof glass can exhibit a raindrop ripple effect. Similarly, the vehicle's sunroof glass may alternatively exhibit a fantasy effect, a starry sky effect, etc.

[0125] In some embodiments, more accurate emission images are obtained to meet user requirements for emission images. The emission assembly provided in this embodiment of the present application may further include a light guide structure. The light guide structure is located in the first light-modulating layer. Naturally, if the emission assembly has multiple light-modulating layers, the light guide structure may be located in each light-modulating layer. . Guidance The optical structure and the optical tuning layer may be the same layer, or the optical guide structure and the optical tuning layer may be two independent layers. The optical guide structure is configured to transmit light emitted by a light source to at least one element in the element group. Specifically, the optical guide structure may include multiple optical fibers. The multiple fibers are arranged in the optical tuning layer and distributed among the elements in the element group. For example, the multiple optical fibers are arranged in the first optical tuning layer and distributed among the first elements in the first element group. Preferably, the multiple elements in the element group correspond one-to-one with the multiple optical fibers. For example, the multiple first elements in the first element group correspond one-to-one with the multiple optical fibers. When each element corresponds to one optical fiber, the illumination of each element can be precisely controlled, so more emission images can be generated and the accuracy of the emission images can be improved. In addition, since local elements can be precisely illuminated, the light-emitting assembly can emit light locally.
