Detailed ways

This embodiment first provides a method for adjusting the air conditioner, which can adjust the operating state of the air conditioner through voice interaction, avoiding the inconvenience of using a remote control or a mobile terminal to adjust the air conditioner and affecting the user experience, and fully satisfying the user’s use need. Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of an adjustment method of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Figure 1, the adjustment method of the air conditioner can perform the following steps:

Step S102, obtaining the actual humidity value of the environment where the air conditioner 200 is located;

Step S104, determine whether the actual humidity value is greater than the first preset humidity threshold, if yes, execute step S106, if not, return to execute step S102;

Step S106: Output the voice prompt information, and adjust the operating state of the air conditioner 200 according to the preset voice interaction scheme.

In the above steps, the actual humidity value of the environment where the air conditioner 200 is located is obtained in step S102. Specifically, a humidity sensor may be provided on the air conditioner 200 to detect the actual humidity value of the environment where the air conditioner 200 is located. In some other embodiments, the actual humidity value can also be obtained through other devices bound to the air conditioner 200.

In step S104, it is determined whether the actual humidity value is greater than the first preset humidity threshold, and if the result is yes, step S106 is executed: output voice prompt information, and adjust the operating state of the air conditioner 200 according to the preset voice interaction scheme. The air conditioner 200 may be provided with a voice output device to output voice prompt information. In a specific embodiment, the voice output device may be a speaker.

When the actual humidity value is greater than the first preset humidity threshold, it can be considered that the humidity of the environment is too high, which affects the comfort of the user and is not conducive to the health of the user, and dehumidification is required. The first preset humidity threshold may be preset according to actual conditions. In other words, the purpose of outputting the voice prompt message is to remind the user to turn on the dehumidification function, so that the air conditioner 200 enters the dehumidification mode, so as to reduce the humidity of the environment as soon as possible and improve the user experience.

There may be multiple preset voice interaction solutions in step S106, and they may be pre-configured according to whether the user's voice feedback information is received and the specific content of the voice feedback information. In a preferred embodiment, the step of adjusting the operating state of the air conditioner 200 according to the preset voice interaction scheme in step S106 may include: determining whether the user's voice feedback information is received within the first preset time; if so, Recognize the voice feedback information to obtain its actual feature vector; compare the actual feature vector with multiple feature vector templates in the preset vector template library to determine the feature vector template with the highest similarity; and according to the highest similarity The feature vector template is matched in the vector template library to obtain the corresponding control instruction, and the operating state of the air conditioner 200 is adjusted according to the control instruction. The vector template library pre-stores the correspondence between different control instructions and the feature vector template. It should be noted that when the voice feedback information is not received within the first preset time, the air conditioner 200 can be controlled to directly enter the dehumidification mode. Preferably, the air conditioner 200 may also be provided with a voice receiving device to receive voice feedback information. The voice receiving device may be a microphone.

Moreover, the step of adjusting the operating state of the air conditioner 200 according to the manipulation command may include: when the manipulation command is the first command, controlling the air conditioner 200 to enter the dehumidification mode. When the control command is the second command, keep the current operating state of the air conditioner 200 unchanged; determine whether the actual humidity value is greater than the second humidity preset threshold, where the second humidity threshold is greater than the first humidity threshold; and if so, control the air conditioner 200 enters dehumidification mode. When the control instruction is the third instruction, the step of outputting the voice prompt information is re-executed after a second preset time delay.

In the air conditioner adjustment method of this embodiment, by obtaining the actual humidity value of the environment where the air conditioner 200 is located, it is determined whether the actual humidity value is greater than the first preset humidity threshold value, and when the result is yes, the voice prompt information is output, according to the preset The voice interaction scheme adjusts the operating state of the air conditioner 200. A method for adjusting the air conditioner 200 by voice is provided to avoid the inconvenience of controlling the air conditioner 200 through a remote control or a mobile terminal to affect the user's use experience, and fully meet the user's use needs.

In some optional embodiments, the air conditioner 200 can achieve higher technical effects by further optimizing and configuring the above steps. The following describes the adjustment of the air conditioner of this embodiment in conjunction with the introduction of an optional execution process of this embodiment. The method is described in detail. This embodiment is only an example of the execution process. In specific implementation, the execution sequence and operating conditions of some steps can be modified according to specific implementation requirements. Fig. 2 is a detailed flowchart of an air conditioner adjusting method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The air conditioner adjusting method includes the following steps:

Step S202, obtaining the actual humidity value of the environment where the air conditioner 200 is located;

Step S204, it is determined that the actual humidity value is greater than the first preset humidity threshold value, if yes, execute step S206, if not, execute step S202;

Step S206, output voice prompt information;

Step S208: Determine whether the user's voice feedback information is received within the first preset time, if yes, perform step S210, if not, perform step S218;

Step S210: Recognizing the voice feedback information to obtain its actual feature vector;

Step S212, comparing the actual feature vector with multiple feature vector templates in a preset vector template library to determine the feature vector template with the highest similarity;

Step S214, matching the feature vector template with the highest similarity in the vector template library to obtain the corresponding manipulation instruction;

Step S216, determine whether the manipulation instruction is the first instruction, if yes, execute step S218, if not, execute step S220;

Step S218, controlling the air conditioner 200 to enter the dehumidification mode;

Step S220, determine whether the manipulation instruction is the second instruction, if yes, execute step S222, if not, execute step S226;

Step S222, keeping the current operating state of the air conditioner 200 unchanged;

Step S224, it is judged whether the actual humidity value is greater than the second preset humidity threshold, if yes, go to step S218, if not, go to step S222;

In step S226, the manipulation instruction is a third instruction, and step S206 is executed again after a second preset time delay.

In the above steps, the second humidity threshold in step S224 is greater than the first humidity threshold in step S204. The first preset time in step S208 and the second preset time in step S226 may be the same or different. In a specific embodiment, the second humidity threshold may be 1.2 times the first humidity threshold, and the first preset time may be set to 3 minutes. However, it should be noted that the above-mentioned specific numerical values are merely examples, and are not intended to limit the present invention. In some other embodiments, it can be set according to actual conditions.

The vector template library in step S212 pre-stores the correspondence between different manipulation instructions and feature vector templates. In other words, speech recognition mainly uses pattern matching. In the training phase, multiple different instruction words are spoken one after another, and their feature vectors are stored in the vector template library as feature vector templates. In the recognition stage, the user’s voice feedback information is recognized to obtain its actual feature vector, and the similarity is compared with each feature vector template in the vector template library in turn, the feature vector template with the highest similarity is determined, and step S214 is performed: According to the feature vector template with the highest similarity, the corresponding control instruction is obtained by matching in the vector template library.

A specific embodiment is introduced as follows: the first instruction is "turn on dehumidification", the second instruction is "not turn on dehumidification", and the third instruction is "delay for 5 minutes". The vector template library pre-stores the correspondence between the above-mentioned three different control commands and the feature vector template. And the first preset time is 3 minutes, and the second preset time is 5 minutes. Therefore, after the air conditioner 200 outputs a voice prompt message to remind the user to turn on the dehumidification function, if the user replies to "turn on dehumidification" or "start dehumidification" within 3 minutes, it can be recognized and determined whether the control command is the first command and can be directly controlled The air conditioner 200 enters the dehumidification mode.

For another example, after the air conditioner 200 outputs a voice prompt message to remind the user to turn on the dehumidification function, if the user replies to "no dehumidification" or "no dehumidification" within 3 minutes, it can be identified whether the control command is the second command. Keep the current operating state of the air conditioner 200 unchanged. And when the actual humidity value is greater than the second preset humidity threshold, the air conditioner 200 is forced to enter the dehumidification mode.

For another example, after the air conditioner 200 outputs a voice prompt message to remind the user to turn on the dehumidification function, if the user replies "5 minutes delay" within 3 minutes, it can be recognized that the control command is the third command, which can be delayed for 5 minutes Re-output the voice prompt message to remind the user to turn on the dehumidification function, and timely determine whether the user's voice feedback information and specific content are received.

In particular, it should be emphasized that the vector template library in step S212 pre-stores the correspondence between different manipulation instructions and feature vector templates. Preferably, control instructions with the same or similar meaning can be combined in advance, so as to accurately recognize the user's voice feedback information. For example, in practical applications, whether the user replies to "start dehumidification" or "turn on dehumidification", it can be recognized as the first instruction.

The adjustment method of the air conditioner in this embodiment provides a voice adjustment method for the air conditioner 200, which avoids the inconvenience of controlling the air conditioner 200 through a remote control or a mobile terminal from affecting the user experience, and fully meets the user's use needs. In addition, a variety of voice interaction solutions are provided, and the dehumidification function of the air conditioner 200 is realized through voice interaction, which is highly intelligent.

This embodiment also provides an air conditioner 200. FIG. 3 is a schematic block diagram of an air conditioner 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The air conditioner 200 includes a control device 100. The control device 100 includes a processor 110 and a memory 120. The memory 120 stores a control program 121, and when the control program 121 is executed by the processor 110, it is used to implement the air conditioner adjustment method of any one of the above embodiments.
