Apparatus control system and apparatus control method
A voice inputting device inputs a voice operation of a user, and transmits voice data based on the voice operation to a first cloud server. The first cloud server receives the voice data from the voice inputting device, analyzes the received voice data, and determines an operational skill level of the user and the details of the voice operation. A second cloud server generates a control command for an air conditioner based on the operational skill level and the details of the voice operation determined by the first cloud server, and transmits the generated control command to the air conditioner.
1. An apparatus control system comprising:
a sound inputting device; and
an apparatus controller configured to control an apparatus, wherein:
the sound inputting device includes first processing circuitry to
input a sound operation of a user, and
transmit to the apparatus controller sound data based on the sound operation, and
the apparatus controller includes second processing circuitry to
upon receiving the sound data from the sound inputting device, (i) analyze the sound data, (ii) determine an operational skill level of the user and details of the sound operation, (iii) generate a control command for the apparatus based on the operational skill level and the details of the sound operation, and (iv) transmit the control command to the apparatus, and
generate a first control command as the control command when the operational skill level is a first operational skill level, and generate a second control command that controls the apparatus by a smaller adjustment unit than the first control command as the control command when the operational skill level is a second operational skill level that is higher than the first operational skill level.
2. The apparatus control system according to claim 1 , wherein:
the apparatus controller includes
a first cloud server, and
a second cloud server,
the first cloud server includes third processing circuitry to
receive the sound data from the sound inputting device,

transmit the control command to the apparatus.
3. The apparatus control system according to claim 1 , wherein:
the apparatus controller is a third cloud server, and
the third cloud server includes fifth processing circuitry to
receive the sound data from the sound inputting device,
analyze the sound data, and determine the operational skill level and the details of the sound operation of the user,
generate a control command for the apparatus based on the operational skill level and the details of the sound operation, and
transmit the control command to the apparatus.
4. The apparatus control system according to claim 1 , wherein:
the apparatus controller includes
a first cloud server, and
a home controller,
the first cloud server includes third processing circuitry to
receive the sound data from the sound inputting device,
analyze the sound data, and determine the operational skill level and the details of the sound operation of the user,
generate operation information including the operational skill level and the details of the sound operation, and
transmit the operation information to the home controller, and
the home controller includes sixth processing circuitry to
receive the operation information from the first cloud server,
generate a control command for the apparatus based on the operation information, and
transmit the control command to the apparatus.
5. The apparatus control system according claim 1 , further comprising
a terminal configured to display an operation screen based on the operational skill level of the user.
6. An apparatus control method comprising:
inputting, by a sound inputting device, a sound operation of a user;
transmitting, by the sound inputting device, sound data based on the sound operation to an apparatus controller; and
upon receiving the sound data from the sound inputting device, by the apparatus controller, (i) analyzing the sound data, (ii) determining an operational skill level of the user and details of the sound operation, (iii) generating a control command for an apparatus based on the operational skill level and the details of the sound operation, and (iv) transmitting the control command to the apparatus,
wherein the apparatus controller generates a first control command as the control command when the operational skill level is a first operational skill level, and generates a second control command that controls the apparatus by a smaller adjustment unit than the first control command as the control command when the operational skill level is a second operational skill level that is higher than the first operational skill level.
