可选地，“获取室内人体状态参数”的步骤包括：获取由穿戴设备所采集的所述室内人体状态参数。

如图1至图5所示，本发明实施例的空调的室内机包括壳体10，室内风机30，多个导风板51、52，摆叶组件60和控制器800。
壳体10限定有容纳空间，以用于容纳室内机的主体部件，包括蒸发器20、室内风机30、摆叶组件60、控制器800等等。壳体10的前侧下部开设有出风口12，以用于吹出换热气流。壳体10可为长度方向沿水平横向的长条状。壳体10的顶部可开设有进风口11，用于吸入室内空气。壳体10内部限定有风道15，风道15的出口连通出风口12。室内风机30设置于壳体10内，用于将壳体10内的调节气流经风道15吹出出风口12，以调节室内空气。调节气流例如为换热气流(冷风气流、热风气流)、净化气流、加湿气流、新风气流等等。
多个导风板52、52均可转动地安装于壳体10，各自的转动轴线均平行于壳体10的横向方向，用于上下导风，也即引导出风口12的俯仰角度，或者称为上下出风角度，也就是气流与水平面的夹角。在空调关机或待机时，还可利用多个导风板来封闭出风口12，以避免灰尘、杂质进入出风口12，如图2。可使出风口12朝前下方敞开，使导风板51和导风板52分别位于出 风口12的前侧和下侧，以通过转动至不同角度来获取多种导风效果。例如图3，使导风板51上扬导风，使导风板52处于关闭状态。如图4所示，使导风板51处于关闭状态，利用导风板52下沉导风，如图4。每个导风板51、52各自匹配有电机(未图示)，每个电机各自独立地接受控制器800的控制。
摆叶组件60安装于出风口12处，用于左右摆风。摆叶组件60具体包括多个摆叶，多个摆叶在驱动机构的驱动下实现同步地左摆动/右摆动、循环往复摆动。能实现摆叶同步摆动的驱动机构在空调领域广泛应用，例如可包括电机、摇杆和连杆，具体不再赘述。
控制器800包括处理器810和存储器820，存储器820存储有计算机程序821，计算机程序821被处理器810执行时用于实现本发明任一实施例的空调的控制方法。处理器810可以是一个中央处理单元(central processing unit，简称CPU)，或者为数字处理单元等等。处理器810通过通信接口收发数据。存储器820用于存储处理器810执行的程序。存储器820是能够用于携带或存储具有指令或数据结构形式的期望的程序代码并能够由计算机存取的任何介质，也可以是多个存储器820的组合。上述计算机程序821可以从计算机可读存储介质下载到相应计算/处理设备或者经由网络(例如因特网、局域网、广域网和/或无线网络)下载并安装到控制器800。
目前空调主要根据室内环境温度来调节运行参数，缺乏对人体状态的关注。为此，本发明提供了一种空调的控制方法，其具有智能体感模式，使空调的运行参数与人体状态相关联，以匹配用户在不同状态时不同的冷热需求。
本发明另一方面提供了空调的控制方法。图6是根据本发明一个实施例的空调的控制方法的示意图。
如图6所示，本发明实施例的空调的控制方法一般性地可包括以下步骤：
步骤S602：接收智能体感模式进入指令。该指令可通过多种方式获取，包括从遥控器、空调的显控装置、语音装置或者与空调绑定的移动终端获取，移动终端可为智能手机、平板电脑等。空调的遥控器、显控装置、移动终端等可设置一个按钮，用户按动按钮后可一键进入该智能体感模式。控制器800接收到该进入指令后，即控制空调进入预设的“智能体感模式”，下述步骤即智能体感模式的具体步骤
步骤S604：获取室内人体状态参数，包括睡眠指数S、血氧指数B、人 体年龄A以及性别系数G。
该步骤中，可获取由穿戴设备200所采集的室内人体状态参数。穿戴设备可为智能手表、智能手环、智能腰带、可监测睡眠的耳机、头套、眼镜、服装、枕头等。穿戴设备200配置有各种生理传感器，如压力传感器(测心率)、生物电极传感器(测心电/肌电/脑电等)，以收集人体状态参数，包括心率、血压、体温、年龄、性别等，还能够计算睡眠指数、血氧指数等，穿戴设备的结构以及对上述参数的收集和计算手段为现有技术，在此无须赘述。以穿戴设备200最近一次所采集的人体睡眠指数作为所述睡眠指数S，因为人体最近一次的睡眠状态更能反映人体当前的状态。
可使穿戴设备200与空调建立通讯连接。通讯方式包括：蓝牙、WiFi、Mesh、ZigBee、Thread、Z-Wave、NFC、Hilink(如华为Hilink协议)、UWB、LiFi中的任意一种。空调开机后与穿戴设备200建立通讯连接，以获取由穿戴设备采集到的人体状态参数。具体地，可使空调自主向穿戴设备200获取人体状态参数，也可以使空调接收由穿戴设备200主动发送的人体状态参数。或者，也可获取由穿戴设备200上传至云端的人体状态参数。
或者，获取由生理传感器所检测的人体状态参数。生理传感器可为非接触式，其设置在空调上。生理传感器可以包括：红外测温仪、多普勒传感器、超声波传感器、光学传感器中等等。
通过穿戴设备200或生理传感器等手段检测人体的深睡时间、浅睡时间、夜醒次数等参数，综合评估得出睡眠指数S，正常范围为0-138。血氧指数B为血液中的氧气含量，正常范围为90％-100％。常规的穿戴设备均可检测/计算上述的S、B，在此不再赘述。
步骤S606：根据人体状态参数，以及预设的“元气值M与人体状态参数的关系”来计算人体的元气值M。
步骤S608：根据元气值M来控制空调的运行参数。
本发明实施例的空调及其控制方法中，空调具有智能体感模式，简化了用户操作，提高了空调的智能化水平。在智能体感模式下，空调根据人体状态参数(包括睡眠指数S、血氧指数B、人体年龄A以及性别系数G)来计算人体的元气值M，根据元气值M来控制空调的运行参数，以精准匹配用户在不同状态的不同的冷热需求，使得人体的风感更加舒适。而且，本发明实施例可通过一键操作进入智能体感模式，然后则无需用户的操作，提升了 空调的智能化、时尚化和科技感。
在一些实施例中，前述步骤S606中的“预设的元气值M与人体状态参数的关系”为M＝(a*S+b*B+c*A)*G。其中，a、b、c均为预设系数；若人体性别为男，G＝1；人体性别为女，G为小于1的正数。优选地，a＝b＞c。优选地，0.35＜a＜0.45，0.35＜b＜0.45，0.15＜b＜0.25，例如a＝0.4，b＝0.4。人体性别为女时，G的取值范围为0.85＜G＜0.95，例如G＝0.9。
例如，以a＝0.4，b＝0.4，男性G＝1，女性G＝0.9为例，元气值M的几个重要点值的如下表：
表1：男性元气值M的重要点值
表2：女性元气值M的一些点值
本实施例根据关系式M＝(a*S+b*B+c*A)*G来计算人体元气值，元气值综合考虑了睡眠指数、血氧指数、人体年龄以及性别，能更精准地反映出人体的状态，从而更好地评估其冷热需求，以便更好地调节空调参数。
在一些实施例中，前述步骤S608中提及的空调的运行参数包括：制冷目标温度，制热目标温度，室内风速，摆叶组件60的运行状态，导风板的开启数量、导风角度，以及新风风量的一个或多个。空调可通过控制室内风 机30的转速来控制室内风速，通过控制新风风机70的转速来控制新风风量。
前述“根据元气值来控制空调的运行参数”的步骤包括：
判断元气值处的元气值区间档位；
根据预先存储的元气值区间档位与空调运行参数的对应关系，来确定空调的运行参数。如此无需频繁调节空调运行参数。
具体地，元气值区间档位与空调运行参数的对应关系中，高档位元气值区间与相邻的低档位元气值区间相比，制冷量/制热量提升，风速不变或增加，导风板开启数量不变或增加，新风量不变或增加。
例如，可将元气值可能落入的元气值区间分为四个档位，由低至高分别为虚弱、疲惫、强悍和爆表。例如：
虚弱档位所对应的元气值区间为M＜60；
疲惫档位所对应的元气值区间为60≤M＜75；
强悍档位所对应的元气值区间为75≤M＜85；
爆表档位所对应的元气值区间为85≤M＜100。
进一步地，“元气值区间档位与空调运行参数的对应关系”包括制冷和制热两种情况，请参考表3、表4的示例。
表3：制冷模式下“元气值区间档位与空调运行参数的对应关系”
表4：制热模式下“元气值区间档位与空调运行参数的对应关系”
至此，本领域技术人员应认识到，虽然本文已详尽示出和描述了本发明的多个示例性实施例，但是，在不脱离本发明精神和范围的情况下，仍可根据本发明公开的内容直接确定或推导出符合本发明原理的许多其他变型或修改。因此，本发明的范围应被理解和认定为覆盖了所有这些其他变型或修改。
