“Smart wind” from Xiaomi - a new air conditioner “feels” a person and saves energy

As technology advances, even simple devices in our daily lives are becoming more and more intelligent. Now the air conditioner is not just a device that cools or heats the air. Now it “feels” the presence of a person, monitors his movements and even adapts its operation to the user. A vivid example of such advanced solutions is the new Mijia Air Conditioner Pro model from Xiaomi.

System that changes the direction of air flow depending on the location of a person

The most notable innovation of the device is mmWave radar technology, which allows you to determine where a person is standing in the room and direct the air flow in that direction. If the user wants to feel the air directly, the flow is directed in that direction, and if, on the contrary, he does not want the air to hit him, the air conditioner automatically changes its direction. This maximizes the level of individual comfort.

Turns off when there is no person - saves energy

Another important advantage of the Mijia Air Conditioner Pro is the ability to spend energy wisely. If the radar detects that the room is empty, the air conditioner automatically switches to eco-mode and reduces electricity consumption. When the user returns, it starts working actively again and restores the required temperature.

This process is carried out using the Lingyun artificial intelligence program. All detection and calculation work is carried out online via the Internet using “cloud” services. According to Xiaomi, this system is able to save 361 kWh of electricity per year, which will provide an average economic benefit of 3,000 rubles, or about $ 350.

Technically modern: powerful, gentle and antibacterial

The new air conditioner is not only smart, but also meets modern requirements with its technical indicators:

• Two-cylinder inverter compressor - high efficiency and fast cooling;
  
• Layered condenser and evaporator - strong heat exchange;
  
• Wide temperature range (−35°C - +65°C) - suitable for almost any climatic conditions;
  
• 1.5 horsepower - ideal for an average-sized room;
  
• 18 dB noise level - almost inaudible;
  
• Auto-cleaning (56°C) - cleaning from bacteria through steam;
  
• Antibacterial filter - eliminates 99% of harmful elements in the air.
  

The device is easy to control: via a traditional remote control, the Mi Home application or voice commands - it is adapted to the smart home system.

Price and sales status

Mijia Air Conditioner Pro is currently only available in the Chinese market. The price is 3999 yuan, which is about 600-700 dollars. However, given Xiaomi's global strategy, such innovative technologies are expected to appear in other countries in the near future.
