초록

현재 스마트 가전의 새로운 시장수요를 만족하기 위해 IoT 기술을 이용한 제품의 기술 차별화(센서, AI 등)가 많은 호응을 얻고 있다. 그러나 에어컨 제품은 융합기술의 초기 단계에 있다. 따라서 에어컨 제품은 IoT를 넘어 정보 생산, 수집, 처리, 저장 및 서비스 개발의 ICT 기술이 필요한 분야이다. 우리가 제안하는 기술은 IR-UWB를 이용한 비접촉방식의 생체신호를 수집 및 저장한다. 생체신호에 따라 에어컨의 방향을 제어하고 사용자의 수면을 모니터링하여 최적의 숙면 환경을 제공한다. 그리고 불쾌지수 환경에 따라 에어컨의 최적조건과 감성조명의 변화로 쾌적함과 안락함을 제공할 수 있는 서비스 알고리즘을 제안한다. 본 연구를 통하여 생체신호, 불쾌지수 및 감성조명의 ICT 기술을 에어컨 서비스를 사용자들이 이용할 수 있도록 알고리즘을 연구하였다.

Recently, technological differentiation(sensor, AI) of products using IoT technology to satisfy consumer needs in the mature market for smart home appliances has received a lot of positive responses. However, air conditioner products are in the early stages of convergence technology. Therefore, air conditioner products are fields that require ICT technologies for information production, collection, processing, storage, and service development beyond IoT. In this paper, we collect and store contactless bio-signal using IR-UWB radar technology. The blowing direction of the air conditioning is controlled according to bio-signal and user's sleep is monitored to provide an optimal sleep environment. In addition, we propose a service algorithm that can provide comfort with changes in the optimal conditions of air conditioning and emotional lighting depending on the discomfort index environment. Through this study, we developed an intelligent smart air conditioning service platform with ICT technology of bio-signal, discomfort index, and emotional lighting.
