    Abstract: A faucet water discharge control method, a faucet water discharge control system, and a storage medium are disclosed. The faucet water discharge control method includes: when a water discharge control instruction that includes a target temperature value is received, determining a target hot water flow rate and a target cold water flow rate based on the target temperature value, controlling valve opening of a first valve based on the target hot water flow rate, controlling valve opening of a second valve based on the target cold water flow rate, acquiring a reference temperature value sent by a temperature sensor, and controlling on/off state of a third valve based on the target temperature value and the reference temperature value so that the difference between the reference temperature value and the target temperature value is within an error range, avoiding excessively hot water discharge and reducing the risk of scalding.

    Abstract: A sensor faucet includes a control assembly, a proximity sensor and a processing unit. The proximity sensor is configured to radiate a radio wave, receive a reflected radio wave, and output a sensing signal according to the reflected radio wave. The processing unit is electrically connected to the proximity sensor and a solenoid valve, and is configured to output a control signal according to the sensing signal. The sensor faucet is configured to perform: determining whether a voltage in response to the reflected radio wave in a second continuous number satisfies a predetermined condition when a first continuous number of the reflected radio wave exceeds a first threshold, operating the solenoid valve if the predetermined condition is not satisfied, continuously determining whether the second continuous number of the reflected radio wave exceeds a second threshold, and determining to output a sleep signal or a second control signal.

    Abstract: A faucet assembly and methods of constructing a faucet assembly. The faucet assembly includes a spout, a base, a puck, and a dispensing appliance. The puck includes a user interface and a wheel, both configured to be manipulated by a user to control the settings and output of the faucet assembly. The dispensing appliance is configured to be stored beneath the surface to which the faucet assembly is installed. The dispensing appliance comprises a water inlet and various water processing components, including but not limited a filter, a chiller, a heater, and a carbonator. The dispensing appliance is configured to process water from the water inlet according to a command by the user on the user interface or wheel, and dispense the water through the spout of the faucet assembly.

    Abstract: A sensing and touch-controlled faucet includes a casing, a covering plate, a water flow sensor, and a soap sensor. The casing has a water outlet arranged proximal to the bottom of a faucet working end, the casing also has a soap dispensing port and a mounting cavity communicating with the water outlet and the soap dispensing port, the soap dispensing port is arranged near the water outlet and the soap dispensing port is located at a side away from a faucet working end relative to the water outlet. When washing hands with the faucet, after the soap falls on the inner side of the fingers, if the motion of the hands is rapidly detected by the water flow sensor which then controls the water outlet to discharge water, the soap will not be easily washed away by the water flow.

    Abstract: A fluid supply faucet includes a faucet body, a plurality of fluid supply ports arranged in the faucet body, and a supply control module arranged on the faucet body. A plurality of fluids separately provided by the fluid supply ports are different. The supply control module includes a camera facing towards the supply position and an information processing unit connected to the camera. The information processing unit performs image recognition on image data output by the camera to determine, with a human body surface area contained in the image data, that one of the fluid supply ports supplies the fluid to the supply position. The information processing unit performs recognition of at least one of the features on the human body surface area: a non-skin tone high-brightness feature and a circular foam feature.
