Description
本發明係有關一種空調控制系統,特別是指基於人員舒適度的空調控制系統。The present invention relates to an air-conditioning control system, in particular to an air-conditioning control system based on personnel comfort.
習知安裝在室內空間的一空調設備(例如冷氣機)具有一溫度偵測器,該溫度偵測器用以偵測一室內溫度,使用者可操作一遙控器以輸出一溫度設定值至該空調設備,該空調設備的控制器可判斷該室內溫度是否大於該溫度設定值。當該控制器判斷出該室內溫度大於該溫度設定值,該控制器可調升該空調設備的壓縮機馬達的運轉功率以加強冷房效果;相對的,當該控制器判斷出該室內溫度低於該溫度設定值,該控制器可調降該空調設備的壓縮機馬達的運轉功率以達省電效果。A conventional air conditioner (such as an air conditioner) installed in an indoor space has a temperature detector, the temperature detector is used to detect an indoor temperature, and a user can operate a remote control to output a temperature setting value to the air conditioner equipment, the controller of the air-conditioning equipment can determine whether the indoor temperature is greater than the temperature set value. When the controller determines that the indoor temperature is greater than the temperature set value, the controller can increase the operating power of the compressor motor of the air conditioner to enhance the cooling effect; on the contrary, when the controller determines that the indoor temperature is lower than For the temperature setting value, the controller can reduce the operating power of the compressor motor of the air conditioner to save electricity.
由此可見,習知空調設備僅單方面根據該室內溫度的高低來決定是否要加強冷房效果,然而,該室內溫度無法有效反映室內人員的體感溫度,導致習知空調設備在加強或減弱冷房效果時機往往無法滿足室內人員,從而讓室內人員感到太冷或冷房效果不足,造成使用上的困擾。It can be seen that the conventional air conditioner only unilaterally decides whether to strengthen the cooling effect according to the level of the indoor temperature. However, the indoor temperature cannot effectively reflect the body temperature of the indoor occupants, resulting in the conventional air conditioner in enhancing or weakening the cooling effect. The timing of the effect is often unable to satisfy the indoor personnel, so that the indoor personnel feel too cold or the cooling effect is insufficient, causing troubles in use.
有鑒於此,本發明的主要目的是提供一種基於人員舒適度的空調控制系統,以期克服習知空調設備在加強或減弱冷房效果時機往往無法滿足室內人員的缺點。In view of this, the main purpose of the present invention is to provide an air-conditioning control system based on the comfort of the personnel, in order to overcome the shortcomings of conventional air-conditioning equipment that often cannot satisfy indoor personnel when the cooling effect is enhanced or weakened.

The value controls the operating state of the at least one air conditioner.
綜上所述,本發明除了根據該環境感測資料,還根據該體姿態辨識模型與該衣著辨識模型的辨識資訊實施該人體舒適度程式套件的運算以得到該舒適度評估值,而該舒適度評估值與人員當下感受到的舒適度相關,由此可見,該舒適度評估值是本發明控制空調設備運轉狀態的根據之一。和習知空調設備相比,本發明並非僅單方面根據室內溫度的高低來決定是否要加強冷房效果,而是將人員姿態、衣著以及環境感測資料作一綜合性考量以控制該至少一空調設備的運轉狀態,在該綜合性考量之下,相對地能讓人員感到較舒適。To sum up, the present invention implements the calculation of the human comfort level program kit according to the identification information of the body posture recognition model and the clothing recognition model in addition to the environmental sensing data, so as to obtain the comfort level evaluation value. The evaluation value of the degree of comfort is related to the comfort degree that the person feels at the moment, and it can be seen that the evaluation value of the degree of comfort is one of the basis for controlling the operation state of the air conditioner in the present invention. Compared with the conventional air-conditioning equipment, the present invention does not unilaterally decide whether to strengthen the cooling effect according to the indoor temperature, but comprehensively considers personnel posture, clothing and environmental sensing data to control the at least one air conditioner. The operating state of the equipment, under this comprehensive consideration, can relatively make the personnel feel more comfortable.

請參考圖7,該運算裝置30可訊號連接一第一空調設備421與一第二空調設備422,該第一空調設備421與該第二空調設備422的設置位置可參考圖8,例如該第一空調設備421可配置在該空間S的前方,該第二空調設備422可配置在該空間S的後方。圖9為該運算裝置30從該攝像裝置20擷取到的即時影像200之一(圖9僅呈現人像與空調設備示意圖,容省略其他背景景物),該運算裝置30根據一分界線div將該即時影像200區分為一第一子影像201與一第二子影像202,其中,該分界線div可水平定義在該即時影像200的中央處,但不以此為限,該第一子影像201(即該空間S前方處)的辨識資訊用以對應控制該第一空調設備421,該第二子影像202(即該空間S前方處)的辨識資訊用以對應控制該第二空調設備422。依此類推,當該即時影像200被區分為複數子影像時,該運算裝置30能根據該複數子影像的辨識資訊分別對應控制不同的空調設備。Referring to FIG. 7 , the
該運算裝置30分別將該第一子影像201與該第二子影像202輸入至該人體姿態辨識模型M(met)以及該衣著辨識模型M(col),其辨識結果整理如下表:
該運算裝置30以查表方式得到該第一子影像201與該第二子影像202之各姿態辨識結果Xa對應的代謝參考值Xa_met與各衣著辨識結果Xc對應的衣著參考值Xc_col,並據以分別實施該人體舒適度程式套件P(comfort)的運算,以得到對應於該第一子影像201的第一舒適度評估值Y1和對應於該第二子影像202的第二舒適度評估值Y2。如此一來,該運算裝置30可實施分區空調控制,舉例來說,當該運算裝置30判斷出該第一舒適度評估值Y1大於該上限值TH_u但該第二舒適度評估值Y2低於該上限值TH_u,即Y1>TH_u且Y2<TH_u,代表該空間S前方的人員可能體感較熱,但該空間S後方的人員尚覺得舒適,該運算裝置30能僅啟動該第一空調設備421排出冷氣,但不啟動該第二空調設備422。The
綜上所述,該舒適度評估值Y是本發明控制該空調設備42運轉狀態的根據之一,其中,該舒適度評估值Y取決於該空間S中的人員現況(例如人數、穿著與活動量),其與人員當下感受到的舒適度相關;舉例來說,當室內環境有多人聚集、較多人員穿得較多或多人活動量較大,該舒適度評估值Y較高,反之較低。是以,隨著該運算裝置30判斷出該舒適度評估值Y大於該上限值TH_u或低於該下限值TH_l,能反映人員感到太熱或太冷的不適感,進而適時啟動或關閉空調設備42,讓人員能處於較舒適的環境中。To sum up, the comfort evaluation value Y is one of the basis for controlling the operation state of the air-
