Abstract
A display system includes an acquirer, an estimator, and a controller. The acquirer acquires a first detection value and a second detection value from a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor, respectively. The temperature sensor and the humidity sensor are both included in a ventilator that ventilates a room. The estimator estimates, based on the first detection value and the second detection value that are acquired by the acquirer, an apparent temperature distribution representing a distribution of apparent temperatures in a height direction in the room. The controller makes a display device present the apparent temperature distribution estimated by the estimator.
Claims12
A display system comprising:
- an acquirer configured to acquire a first detection value and a second detection value from a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor, respectively, the temperature sensor and the humidity sensor being both included in a ventilator configured to ventilate a room;
- an estimator configured to estimate, based on the first detection value and the second detection value that are acquired by the acquirer, an apparent temperature distribution representing a distribution of apparent temperatures in a height direction in the room;
- and
- a controller configured to make a display device present the apparent temperature distribution estimated by the estimator,
- wherein the estimator is configured to estimate, based on the first detection value and the second detection value, a spatial temperature on a ceiling surface of the room and a spatial humidity on the ceiling surface of the room, respectively, and thereby estimate, based on the spatial temperature and spatial humidity thus estimated, the apparent temperature distribution in the height direction in the room.
