Further, the processor may determine the position control of the space where the target is located, and according to the position of the target, select and open the third air outlet closest to the target. When the target is moving in the space, the processor can close the previously opened third air outlet according to the change of the target position and open the third air outlet closest to the changed position according to the new target position. In some embodiments, the processor may determine the conversion relationship between the three-dimensional space coordinate system and the image coordinate system or the camera coordinate system based on the position of the target in the image data or the position relative to the camera, according to the calibration parameters of the camera. And based on the conversion relationship, the position of the target in the three-dimensional space is determined.
