First Claim
1. An air-conditioning control apparatus comprising:
- a receiver, which in operation, receives a detection signal from a sensor for detecting a presence of an object at an air-supply port of an air-conditioning apparatus and that receives a recognition result from a recognition device for recognizing a change request for changing setting of the air-conditioning apparatus by a user; and
a controller, which in operation, controls the air-conditioning apparatus based on the detection signal, whereinin a case where wind from the air-supply port is set at a first flow rate and the input unit receives the detection signal, the controller outputs a first control signal for causing the air-conditioning apparatus to change the first flow rate to a second flow rate different from the first flow rate for a predetermined time and then setting the wind from the air-supply port at the first flow rate again, andin a case where the change request is issued, the control unit outputs a second control signal for causing the air-conditioning apparatus to adjust a property of wind from the air-supply port, based on the recognition result received by the receiver,wherein at least one of the receiver and the controller is included in a processor.

Abstract
In an air-conditioning control apparatus, an input unit receives a detection signal from a sensor that detects the presence of an object at an air-supply port of an air-conditioning apparatus, and receives a recognition result from a recognition device that recognizes a change request for changing setting of the air-conditioning apparatus by a user. In a case where wind from the air-supply port is set at a first flow rate and the input unit receives the detection signal, the control unit outputs a first control signal for changing the first flow rate to a second flow rate different from the first flow rate for a predetermined time and then setting the wind from the air-supply port at the first flow rate again. In a case where the change request is issued, the control unit outputs a second control signal for causing the air-conditioning apparatus to adjust a property of wind from the air-supply port, based on the recognition result received by the input unit.
