Abstract: A wireless network system is incorporated in an air conditioning system. A user is accessible to the wireless network system for controlling the air conditioner. The wireless network system includes an AP (access point) equipment, an air conditioning controller and a user-operable terminal. The terminal and the air conditioning controller are connected communicably and wirelessly when a dedicated application is actuated in the terminal. AP information (such as a password) is transmitted from the terminal to the air conditioning controller to establish coordination (i.e., pairing) between the terminal and the air conditioning controller in a state where the terminal and the air conditioning controller are connected mutually and wirelessly. The AP information identifies the AP equipment. In this coordinated state, the access to the AP equipment is executed based on the AP information. Authentication is performed when the terminal and the air conditioning controller are mutually and directly connected.

Abstract: A structure thermodynamic model, which models the physical characteristics of a controlled space, inputs a constraint state curve which gives constraints, such as temperature, that a controlled space is to meet; and outputs a state injection time series which is the amount of state needed for the controlled space to optimize the constraint state curve. The state injection time series curve is then used as input into an equipment model, which models equipment behavior in the controlled space. The equipment model outputs equipment control actions per control time (a control sequence) which can be used to control the equipment in the controlled space. Some embodiments train the models using training data.

Abstract: A micro-environment controllable temperature and humidity system evaluates heat and humidity comfort level of textiles. The system includes a bed-shaped partitioned platform having one or more non-temperature and humidity-controllable sections and one or more temperature and humidity controllable sections. One or more temperature and humidity control machine is in communication with the one or more temperature and humidity control sections for supplying air with a pre-set temperature and humidity. A central controller electrically is connected to the one or more temperature and humidity control machines. The micro-environment controllable temperature and humidity system can perform partitioned control on the temperature and humidity in a micro-environment during sleep, and is used for studying the influence of the temperature and humidity on the comfort level of different regions of a subject.

Abstract: A safety system implemented within a structure includes a source of breathable air, and a fixed piping system to supply the breathable air from the source to each interior region of a number of interior regions across the structure. The fixed piping system is implemented in a ringed architecture including a first portion of the fixed piping system proximate the each interior region and a second portion thereof farther away from the each interior region. In accordance with the ringed architecture, the first portion and the second portion are implemented as a continuous ring with respect to the source of the breathable air such that, even during a compromise of a first sub-portion of the first portion, unaffected by the compromise, the breathable air continues to be supplied to a second sub-portion of the first portion by way of the second portion.

Abstract: A Heating, Ventilation, and/or Air Conditioning (HVAC) controller configured to control at least part of an HVAC system of a building. The HVAC controller may include a user interface and a controller. In response to a selection by a user at the user interface, the controller may assemble and present via the user interface an output that encodes settings in a machine readable form. The controller may display the encoded settings on the display with fixed segments of a fixed segment display. An application program code on a remote device may be utilized to capture the displayed fixed segments that encode the settings in an image. The captured image of fixed segments may be decoded at the remote device or may be sent to a remote computing device for processing and/or decoding.

Abstract: A control system for controlling a heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system, uses a thermal comfort model (TCM), an airflow dynamics model (ADM) and an HVAC model connecting thermal states at air vents with states of actuators of the HVAC system, for determining a target thermal state at the air vents connecting the HVAC system to an environment, such that the target thermal state at the air vents results in a thermal state at the location of an occupant according to the ADM connecting uneven distribution of thermal states at different locations in the environment. Further, the control system determines and submits control commands to one or multiple actuators of the HVAC system producing the target thermal state at the air vents.
