An environmental control system includes: a wind blower which blows wind toward a subject; and a control apparatus which performs control that makes a sympathetic nervous system of the subject dominant over a parasympathetic nervous system of the subject by changing a wind speed of the wind that is blown by the wind blower at a cycle in a range from 15 minutes to 60 minutes and by setting a time in which the wind speed is a smallest value to less than or equal to 75% of the cycle.

The present invention relates to a vehicle air conditioner device, comprising: an air purifying unit for regulating air quality inside the vehicle; an inside air quality acquiring unit for acquiring air quality inside the vehicle; an outside air quality acquiring unit for acquiring air quality outside the vehicle; and a display unit for displaying information related to the acquired air quality inside the vehicle and information related to the acquired air quality outside the vehicle.

An environmental control system includes: an air conditioner for adjusting a temperature in a space in which a subject is located; and a control apparatus which performs control that makes a parasympathetic nervous system of the subject dominant over a parasympathetic nervous system of the subject by performing first control and second control using the air conditioner. The first control increases the temperature in the space, and the second control cyclically changes the temperature in the space in such a manner that a temperature difference from a largest value to a smallest value in the space falls within 3 degrees Celsius.

An environmental control system includes: a wind blower which blows wind toward a subject; and a control apparatus which switches between first control and second control at a predetermined timing. The first control makes a sympathetic nervous system of the subject dominant over a parasympathetic nervous system of the subject by changing a wind speed of the wind that is blown by the wind blower at a predetermined cycle, and the second control makes the parasympathetic nervous system of the subject dominant over the sympathetic nervous system of the subject by decreasing a wind speed of the wind that is blown by the wind blower to a wind speed lower than the wind speed in the first control.

A system or method utilizes one or more outside sensors to measure one or more outside air parameters, and optionally one or more inside sensors to measure inside air parameters. A processor is configured to at least partially control the operation of an air cleaner based on at least one of the one or more outside air paraments, or a comparison of at least one of the one or more outside air parameters to at least of one of the one or more inside air parameters. The system and method may use artificial intelligence to provide additional information to the controller to assist in controlling the air cleaner.

An environmental apparatus controller performs control over multiple types of environmental apparatuses, and includes a grasping unit, learning control plan output means, and a selection control unit. The grasping unit grasps current mental and physical condition information of a user, environmental situation information, and target relationship information between a target mental and physical condition and a present mental and physical condition. The learning control plan output means outputs a control change plan for each combination of multiple types of the environmental apparatuses according to the current mental and physical condition information, the environmental situation information, and the target relationship information. The selection control unit selects one of a plurality of the control change plans output by the learning control plan output means and executes the plan. The learning control plan output means performs learning such that a method of determining the control change plans to be output is updated.

[Object] To provide a management apparatus and an air conditioning management system by which the objectivity of a comfort level evaluation relating to a smell in a room can be enhanced and a comfort level can be evaluated also with respect to an unknown smell. [Solving Means] A management apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a detecting unit, an input unit, a storage unit, and a control unit. The detecting unit detects a smell in a room. The input unit is operated by a user who enters the room and acquires a sensory evaluation of each user which relates to the smell in the room when the user enters the room. The storage unit accumulates evaluation data obtained by associating an output of the detecting unit and an output of the input unit with each other and stores a plurality of attributes relating to a comfort level of the smell in the room, the attributes being classified on the basis of the evaluation data. The control unit determines which of the plurality of attributes the output of the detecting unit belongs to.

A system for circulating a volatile composition throughout at least one room is provided. The system includes a central communication unit capable of receiving incoming signals and sending outgoing instructions. The central communication unit comprises a memory configured to store settings. The system includes a volatile composition dispenser capable of delivering the volatile composition into the air. The volatile composition dispenser is communicably connectable with the central communication unit through a wireless communication link. The system includes an air handling device communicably connectable with the central communication unit and configured to move air throughout the at least one room upon receipt of an outgoing instruction from the central communication unit.

An fluid monitoring system can include a filter having an upstream face and a downstream face and defining a form factor, a sensor package arranged within the form factor of the filter to detect at least one quality factor of a surrounding medium, a transmitter electronically coupled to the sensor package and including an antenna for autonomous wireless transmission of the detected fluid quality information, and a power subsystem coupled to the sensor package and the transmitter to provide access to continuous electrical power thereto.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for monitoring air quality with multiple sensing devices. The methods, systems, and apparatus include actions of: obtaining first sensor data from a sensor that is not an air quality sensor, determining that the first sensor data satisfy a first air quality criterion, in response to determining that the first sensor data satisfy the first air quality criterion, obtaining second sensor data from an air quality sensor, determining that the second sensor data satisfy a second air quality criterion, and based on a determination that the second sensor data satisfy the second air quality criterion, activating an air quality device.
