    摘要: A facility apparatus control device includes: first and second image capturing units capturing images of first and second spaces; a data-for-learning generator generating location information on a person in the first space by analyzing a first image captured and extracting therefrom, an image of a range including the person in the first space; a learning unit learning, using the location information and a first extracted image extracted by the data-for-learning generator, a feature of the person in the first space and a staying location of the person in the first space; a person detector detecting a person in the second space by analyzing a second image captured and extracting therefrom, an image of a range including the detected person; and an apparatus controller controlling a facility apparatus installed in the first space using a second extracted image extracted by the person detector and a learned result of the learning unit.

    摘要: Each of plurality of personal terminals is configured to acquire first data indicating a result of inputting whether a possessor is comfortable, second data indicating a terminal location, and third data indicating a temperature at the terminal location. An information processing device includes a first learning unit to classify the plurality of personal terminals into a plurality of classes based on the first to third data transmitted from the plurality of personal terminals, a storage unit to store a plurality of control details each associated with a corresponding one of the plurality of classes into which the first learning unit classifies the plurality of personal terminals, and a control unit to read, from the storage unit, a control detail associated with a class into which a personal terminal detected in an air conditioning target space is classified among the plurality of classes and control an air conditioning device.

    摘要: A programmable thermostat supports at least one attribute where each different attribute values may support different sets of thermostatic settings. The programmable thermostat may be programmed based on the different attribute values rather than on temperature set points that are traditionally mapped to programmed times. Each set may include settings for a plurality of controlled equipment including a heating/cooling system, fan, ventilator, humidifier, and/or de-humidifier. Each embodiment may support attribute values associated with an occupancy attribute (which is indicative whether or not people are occupying an environmental entity) and/or a scenario attribute (which flexibly maps different thermostatic settings to different scenario attribute values). Stored configuration data about the thermostatic settings may be organized as a tree structure, where the leaves correspond to the thermostatic settings. A programmable thermostat/ventilator controller may also instruct a ventilator system to run during an adjustable pre-occupancy purge time duration before an environmental entity is occupied.
