The concrete operation of the control board 198 will be described as follows.

The control board 198 checks whether the door 130 is opened or closed through the door sensor 199. If the door 130 is closed, 140 and the rest of the operating components (the temperature control unit 150, the humidity control unit 160, the fan 170, and the speaker (not shown)) are not operated. If the glass part 131 is made of PDLC glass, the current is supplied to the glass part 131 to make it transparent, or the current part is not supplied to the glass part 131 if necessary, thereby making the state of frost or mist do.

When the control board 198 confirms the opened state of the door 130 through the door sensor 199, the user's set temperature signal transmitted through the temperature control switch 190 and the humidity control switch 195, And a speaker (not shown), and the temperature control unit 150, the humidity control unit 160, and the fan 170 So that the air having the set temperature and humidity is discharged through the opening 113. At this time, air discharged through the opening 113 is air purified by the filter 180. The area of the weather condition most similar to the temperature and humidity set by the user and the landscape and sound information are collected from the outside through the communication unit provided in the control board 198 and provided.

Although not shown, the virtual window device 100 may further include remote control means such as a remote control for remote control of operations. Temperature and humidity control and door opening and closing can be controlled via remote control means. To control the opening and closing of the door, a driving motor for opening and closing the door is further provided. Any remote means other than the remote control may be used as the remote control means, for example, a smartphone or other computer system connected to the control board 198 in wired or wireless communication.

Now, the virtual window device 100 described above as the configuration center will be described with reference to its operation.

First, an operation state when the door 130 is closed will be described. When the door 130 is closed, the door sensor 199 confirms the closed state of the door 130 and transmits it to the control board 198. The control board 198 which confirms that the door 130 is closed operates the display 140 to output a predetermined landscape screen through the display 140 and operates the remaining operation components such as the temperature controller 150, Section 160, fan 170 and speaker (not shown)). If the glass part 131 is made of PDLC glass, the current is supplied to the glass part 131 to make it transparent, or the current part is not supplied to the glass part 131 if necessary, thereby making the state of frost or mist do.

Next, an operation state when the door 130 is opened will be described. When the user opens the door 130, an open signal of the door 130 is transmitted to the control board 198 by the door sensor 199 so that the control board 198 confirms the opening state of the door 130 do. The control board 198 which confirms that the door 130 is opened receives the temperature signal and the humidity signal set by the user, which are transmitted from the temperature control switch 190 and the humidity control switch 195 together. When the door 130 is opened, the control board 198 controls the humidity control switch 195 and the humidity control switch 195 based on the user's set temperature signal and the set humidity signal transmitted through the temperature control switch 190 and the humidity control switch 195, The temperature and humidity of the area are outputted through the display 140 and the speaker (not shown) by operating the temperature control unit 150, the humidity control unit 160 and the fan 170, (Not shown). At this time, air discharged through the opening 113 is air purified by the filter 180. The area of the weather condition most similar to the temperature and humidity set by the user and the landscape and sound information are collected from the outside through the communication unit provided in the control board 198 and provided.

Although the present invention has been described with reference to the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited thereto. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
